Cologne Christmas Market
( 1 user review )
Four big Christmas markets - at the Cologne Cathedral, on the Alter Markt, on the Neumarkt and on the Rudolfplatz. These are the places you want to visit if you're in Cologne during the winter season.
The market at the Cologne Cathedral is the most impressive one of Cologne's Christmas markets due to the backdrop of the imposing Cathedral. Beneath the largest Christmas tree in the Rhineland you can find 160 attractively designed wooden pavilions. Here you can choose from numerous sweet delicacies, watch artisans at work and enjoy the “Original Christmas mulled wine” out of the festively decorated Christmas mugs.
As Christmas approaches there is plenty of entertainment and things to do through out Cologne, including a variety of Christmas concerts, Nativity scene displays and a huge temporary ice rink on Heumarkt.

I liked
Definitely one of the best places to go for a Xmas feeling! Love Cologne!I disliked
I found the market besides the Cathedral too " commercial" and touristic. The one few hondred meters away was much much better, you really get into the German feeling there!
