At night, Christmas market was lit up and it had more Christmas atmosphere.

Speaking of Germany, everybody imagines Sausage, right? Of course, many kinds of sausages were sold at Christmas market. We ordered our favorite sausages, then they cook sausages and they made hot dogs for us. It was enjoyable to watch while their cooking.
