✨Tips:
Christmas Markets in Germany are generally free to visit and wander around.
You pay a deposit, or Pfand, for your mug and you can get it refilled throughout the market. Each market has its own mug, often printed with the year and a festive design
The majority of Christmas Markets across Europe only accept cash. The currency used in Germany is the Euro (€). Even stalls that accept card will often have a minimum card payment, and so it's better to take cash, just to be on the safe side.
🎄Leipzig
The Kleinert Bakery is a short walk from Market Square and provides baking classes for delights like the Leipzig Lerchen.
🎄Berlin
Pro tip: take the bus 100. Its route takes you passed many major attractions, sometimes stopping right near the attraction, sometimes requiring you to get out and walk a little ways to get there.
🎄Dresden
Dresden’s public transport network is comprehensive, reasonably priced, and accessible with a seamless network of trams, S-Bahn trains and buses getting you from A to B every 10 minutes during daytime. Tickets are available at many stops, on board the trams and S-Bahn trains or via the DVB mobile app. The latter also provides timetables, real-time departures, disruption reports and an interactive map.

🎄Cologne
Other markets to check out: Nikolausdorf, or Nicholas Village, on Rudolfplatz near the trendy Belgian Quarter where you’ll encounter cozy village lanes, charming half-timbered houses, and hot drinks served in cups shaped like Santa’s boots.
