@ London ~

@ Birmingham ~

Its my yearly tradition to visit Christmas markets wherever I’m travelling to in Europe. This year I wasn’t in time to catch any of them abroad so I make do with the ones in England and I return to Birmingham once again.

Driving up to the midlands from southwest, I’ve come to the world’s largest authentic German Christmas market outside of Germany / Austria. Packed with 140 traditional stalls, you can literally find everything from crafts, toys, german mulled wine, sausages, german beer, sweets, crepes, carol singers, performances to keep everyone entertained. Superb atmosphere to soak yourself in festive mood and I love squeezing through the crowd and munching on yummy snacks along the way in the cold.
