The only thing wrong with Christmas markets is that they take place in winter. When David and I travel in winter, we want sun, sun and more sun. I suppose we could check out the Christmas markets in Australia or other parts of the southern hemisphere, but we never have.
Many Christmas markets bear the name Christkindlesmarkt, or Christkindlmarkt (Christ childâs market). Legend says that Martin Luther came up with the idea of giving his children small gifts at Christmas, saying they came from the Christ child. The idea caught on, especially with merchants, who expanded their shops to market stalls in the main square.
