Exploring Christmas Market

We started exploring the Nuremberg Christmas market from 11 am. But the Market was open only till 2 pm. I guess the Shopkeepers too wanted to start preparing for their own Christmas with their family (a part which I actually like a lot about Germany: take your family as priority than others).
Situated right at the heart of Hauptmarkt (main market), this Christkindlesmarkt (it's the name of Nuremberg's Christmas market) The vibe was amazing and we got to try various food which were awesome (we opted only for Vegetarian food, but it was still great). We tried Apple cider with Orange rum at a Glühwein shop, and it was the highlight of this Christmas market.
We also got the famous Nürnberger Elisen Lebkuchen, which was delicious (a must try), and there were a good varieties of decorative and day-to-day usable articles. We purchased some for ourselves too.
We also visited a Luck tower in this Christmas market, and people were standing in a queue just to climb the fence around it and turn two rotatable iron rings, which is supposed to bring good luck. We saw all kinds of antics people do to get good luck here, promoting the naughty, childish and festive moods of people. 😃Read more
