One of my favourite traditions is visiting this Christmas market in Cheltenham each year to start the festive season. The whole Promenade is full of wooden stalls, selling handcrafted wooden toys, delicious sweets from Germany, freshly grilled Bratwurst, warming Gluvine, and a wide range of arts and crafts from the local artisans. The atmosphere is just right and is a welcome addition to the usual holiday shopping... although I should say that the shopping on The Promenade and in Montpellier in Cheltenham is of the very highest standard.

I have never been to the German Christmas market but am inspired to do so. I visit the Cotswolds regularly from the US. If anyone is interested, I recently wrote an article about my dad's village, Bibury: http://allinaword.blogspot.com/2011/12/village-of-enchanting-beauty.html
