A day before christmas I visited the Christmas market in the city center of Tallinn, in the old town. I didn't really mind not going but my girlfriend insisted, had to go 😀. This time of the year, the old town is decorated with Christmas decorations and actually looks really nice.
I took some photos with a phone. I didn't bring my camera this time.
This is the market I talked about. There are many different stalls, selling all kinds of different stuff. Some very furry winter clothes and souvenirs. I guess much of it is intended for tourists. Here are some photos of the stalls. In the middle of the square is a huge Christmas tree. We didn't have any snow on the ground that evening, the weather got pretty warm.
One of the drinks that is almost mandatory to buy when visiting the Christmas market or just in the time of Christmas is a mulled wine. I like it, tastes great and is as strong as regular wine. There are many stalls that offer it on the market.
Some French guy did some trick show next to the market.
Visiting this Christmas market always brings some spirit of this season. Even though I'm not a big fan of going to the city center, visiting this market is worth it.
