The Stuttgart Christmas Market was so awesome we decided to visit the one in Augsburg. According to ChristmasMarkets.com, Augsburg hosts one of the seven major Christmas markets in Germany and since it is only less than two hours away we decided to drive out there yesterday afternoon.

The road trip alone was lots of fun, the sights we saw on the way there were very nice. The further up we went the more snow covered the ground. There were towns in deep valleys that look like Christmas villages Nay used to build back in Baguio. I tried to take a photo, but it didn’t come out quite as clear but you can see that it is beautiful.

We arrived Augsburg at the perfect time, the sun was setting and it made the sky look royal blue as you can see in the earlier photos. Then minutes later the sky turned pitch black and the streets were lit by Christmas spirit. Augsburg’s Christmas Market was not as impressive as we thought, being in Stuttgart the night before raised our expectations on Augsburg. The only thing that Augsburg had more to offer was the Angel performance, unfortunately we were too far to see the show and take photos of the Angels. Nevertheless, it was still a fun trip we got Glühwein of course and had some yummy street food!

Next weekend we’re going to Heidelberg again to experience the Christmas Market there. Love, love, love Christmas! Click here to view the photos.
