Many visitors express themselves positively and are looking forward to visiting their Christmas market, despite the criticisms mentioned.
A feast for the senses
The culinary offerings are not for the faint of heart: from vegetarian and vegan soups to cinnamon rolls to handmade hats and scarves.

The whole thing is complemented by offers such as city tours and cultural events during the Christmas season, which further underline the festive atmosphere.

It remains to be seen whether the security measures will ultimately ensure greater safety, but anticipation prevails and no matter how helpful the criticism may be, the invitation to celebrate remains!
