Walking in… Dortmund, Germany: Xmas Market.

Dortmund just continues wondering me!

I had the chance of meeting the Xmas Market in Dortmund. It´s a different concept of the ones I knew before, because instead of being placed in one specific square or a determinate space for it, it is actually all over the city center, mixed with the normal stores, churches and pedestrian streets. So, it becomes in some kind of the whole city center market! :D

I was also hallucinating with the things they sell… a lot of wood handcrafts, ceramic, candles, interesting xma´s lights, glass bombs hand painted… And if we talk about food… mmmmm!!! Great healthy options with fruits and vegetables, a lot of great bread (I love German bread!) :D and also street places for drinking something… but all, and I mean ALL with quite great taste!

You can give a look to it here:



As far as youtube says it´s blocked in some countries, here the version with youtube music: (the other one was with Enya… btw: great versions for Xmas music!)



Here the second part, with the world´s biggest Xmas tree:
