I've pretty much settled on Berlin and Stuttgart for 9 days with a quick stop in Salzburg.
Oh, and no, I'm not thinking about Christmas already I'm thinking about booking flights and hotels already. From experience I remember difficulties in getting flights to Germany over that time of year so I want to get in as soon as. Then again, judging on how this year just flew by it will be Christmas in no time.

Why not go to Munich and then get the short train trip to Salzburg?
This, been to both markets & both are awesome!
Didnt like my idea of Nuremberg then?

In the UK, the Birmingham one is very good. Just try and go 'off-peak', as you can barely move on Saturday afternoons.
Read what I said properly before you invariably make a **** of yourself. I'm only booking the flights and hotels, not counting down the days with a big red marker. I'm going to New Zealand next April, my flights are booked already. Do I need to 'get a grip' ?
No, it's still very possible to go there. I haven't booked anything yet, just exploring ideas. It's difficult figuring out which one is truly the best to visit as they all claim that.

Worst '***** and proud of it' post ever

Why is it random? German cities are well known for their Christmas markets.
It's no different to someone like you starting a "SPEK ME A MAGGERLOOF HOLIDAY"
Sir i protest, i was just surprised at the titles niche of members that would have opinions on the matter.
If German Christmas markets are indeed incredibly popular places to visit then i withdraw my previous statements and offer my apologies, no need for the duel on the village green afterall.

They are the most famous in the world. People truly come from far and wide. All hotels close to the city squares are fully booked 2 months in advance hence the need to get in as early as possible. Last year we went to the Brussels market and the nearest hotel we found to the markets was 3 miles away. This was 6 weeks before the kick off. I thought everyone knew about them hence my surprised at the idiotic replies. Anyway, well worth a visit.
