There is something disappointingly commercial about recreating a German Christmas market, complete with real Germans, in the city center. By displaying a selection of premium wares and very careful control of the stalls, a centuries-old tradition is further sterilized for our shopping pleasure.
I should however confess that the glühwein and bratwurst were enticing. And the stall with würste from all over Germany was definitely impressive.
