Photo story: Christmas Market at Marienplatz
The Christmas market at Marienplatz, the heart of Munich, can be dated back to the fourteenth century. Unlike its competitors, it still retains a traditional flavor. From the end of November to Christmas Eve, the place transforms into a winter festival ground. With green roofs and red interiors, the hundreds of neatly decorated stalls look resplendent. Although Bavarian customs, craft, and cuisine rule the roost, you can also find crepes and waffles.
