I have been to Christmas markets in Germany (mmmmmmm Gluwein!), Belgium and France. Just wondered where the rest of you have found really awesome Christmas markets in your travels around the world?

An interesting Christmas market is the one at Zuerich, Switzerland, which, in 1999, was primarily held in the hauptbahnhof (main rail station.) Of the many crafts on display, the most interesting, as you might expect, in Switzerland, were the clocks of all descriptions. Also, a huge Christmas tree was entirely decorated with Swarovski crystal ornaments. For more info, try www.christkindlimarkt.ch. Good shopping. Loy.

Thanks for responding. <BR> <BR>I always hear about great Christmas Markets in Europe - and they are definitely worth visiting, as many people have discovered. <BR> <BR>I wonder, do other parts of the world also have Christmas Markets? Anyone?
