German Christmas Markets

Having loved over there my favourites are Koln and Berlin, most german towns have their own even the small ones are good, but the big cities have many dotted around, the two I mentioned are great, I hope we draw a German team in CL as I missed out in the Dortmund one last time.
 
Just wait till I launch my "Favourite 1970's German Male Porn Star With A Moustache" Thread.
That's a tad strong, but some piccies of pigtailed blonde barmaids with their tre'pneys spilling out of lacy tops would brighten up a dull morning.
 
Cologne gets the thumbs up from me too. I went last year and the markets pissed all over what we have here - mulled wine and bratwurst for about half the price of what you pay in Manchester, none of this overcrowding bollocks, and generally a far more relaxed atmosphere. Cheap flights on Germanwings and decent digs at a bargain price - what's not to like? There's plenty of other stuff to do too - the Cathedral being the obvious one - and if you've had your fill of the markets then stuff yourself silly in the Lindt chocolate museum ;)

For variety, I'm off to Riga this time round - flights and 4 nights in the 5 star Radisson Blu for just over £170 per person.
 
Berlin is great for beer, and the walking tours are fascinating, but the city itself is far from beautiful IMO. Bombed to oblivion, the architecture is predominantly brutalist, and the graffiti is literally everywhere, which really spoils the place.
Why the Germans haven't got to grips with the cretinous scrotes who create this vandalistic shit baffles me.
 
As a result of City European away days, I've been to the ones in Cologne, Dortmund and Munich. Cologne just edges it, from what I can remember.
