Destination Munich
Press briefings Oct 21, 2014
Dear Ms. Hill,in about six weeks the opening of the Christmas Markets will herald the
beginning of the Advent and Christmas season in Munich. Visitors and
citizens alike delight in strolling along the market stalls, selecting
ornaments for their Christmas tree, presents for their loved ones and
generally basking in the festive atmosphere. When feet, hands and noses
are getting cold, nothing works better than a mug of hot mulled wine
(with or without alcohol) enjoyed in a companionable group of new
acquaintances.
