The Annual Christmas Market is a highlight for the City of Bratislava. We have been wandering around the market and it is festive and delightful. The market is in the historic old downtown and is made up of wooden booths set up in the main pedestrian squares. All booths are required to have a Christmas theme and be native to Slovakia.
Lots of crafts and food dominate the market. A stage features many school groups singing and other people performing. Hot wine is also a draw - red, white, or the Christmas punch. The market is picturesque and really quaint. It has the look of Christmas without being gaudy. Here are just a few photos so you get an idea of this most extraordinary celebration.
