On tuesday I took the train to Cologne (Germany) to visit the Christmas market.
It was all around the famous Kölner Dom Cologne Cathedral
a quite special Nativity scene was in front of the Cathedral
There were a lot of stands selling Christmas ornaments and handmade things
Gingerbread hearts
Many, many food stands !
A street painter
"screwed" Artwork ! Little figures all made out of metal and screws !
cute little ceramic houses to built up a little village
Even a fancy hairdresser working with long hairneedles
and so many different angels ! That was the first thing we noticed, instead of Santa ornaments there were angels in all forms and sizes !
♥ all your Christmas pics~it's nice seeing things in other parts of the country. That street painter was awesome!

It looks warmer there than here.

Köln is a nice town. I hope to visit it one day! Thanks for sharing with us this beautiful Christmas Market! I am sure there weren't so much food in my market in Toulon than in yours! I love German food! Je sens d'ici l'odeur des saussices et le bon goût de la bière allemande!
