Christkindlmarket in Chicago

I completely forgot to mention German Christmas market here in Chicago called Christkindlmarket .
But there is still time if you want to visit. I would definitely recommend it!

History and Tradion:
 
Inspired by the Christkindlesmarkt in Nuremberg, Germany, which began in 1545, the Christkindlmarket Chicago brings a cherished German and European tradition with international flair and local charm to Chicago. Chicago's largest open-air Christmas festival was first held on Pioneer Court in 1996. By special invitation of Mayor Richard M. Daley, Christkindlmarket Chicago moved to Daley Plaza in 1997 and has become a staple event on the plaza ever since. Christkindlmarket Chicago has grown to become one of the most popular winter attractions in the heart of the city.
 
 
 
I love to go and visit every year because of the atmosphere and of course because of the food!
