Chasing a snowfall in the north, the Christmas market in Salzburg in winter

In early December, I encountered a heavy snowfall that only happens once every sixty years, and the surrounding areas of Germany and Austria have all become a "winter wonderland". The streets and alleys are covered in silver, and I thought I had arrived in Northern Europe! Coupled with the arrival of the annual winter festival Christmas market, everything in front of me is even more dreamy. Without exaggeration, going to the Christmas market is carved into the genes of every Salzburg resident. Originating from the flea market in 1491, it gradually developed into a Christmas goods trading point, and now it is a bustling Christmas market. In the past 500 years, the culture of the Christmas market has been integrated into the lives of the residents of Salzburg. To do list☑️ 1️⃣, Sweet punch, Christmas cookies and German hot red wine are the classic Christmas trio. Drink hot red wine and chat with family and friends, taste local delicacies, such as roasted chestnuts, gingerbread, etc. are highly recommended. 2️⃣, The Christmas decorations in the market are particularly exquisite, most of them are handmade by craftsmen. Glass crystal balls, candles, illustrations, wooden toys, various ornaments, can all be taken home! 3️⃣, There are occasional activities and performances in the market, and what I recommend more is to listen to a Christmas concert in the fortress on the top of the mountain. 4️⃣, On December 6, the Alpine monster Krampus who guards Saint Nicholas will also appear nearby, wearing a long fur coat and a scary mask, we were scared out of our wits! You can also feel it!
