We only had one night here, but it was the best Christmas Market yet, and it&#8217;s definitely someplace we want to come back to.  We also had some of the best food of the trip.  We went to a beer hall where Kenzie had spatzel, and I had schnitzel.  So good!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\"
