Advent Markets

December 14th, 2009 Posted in Uncategorized

 

The “Festive Season” is upon us and all the delightful Advent markets are open for business. Over the last couple of weekends we have visited the local markets at St Gilgen, Strobl and St Wolfgang. Each village depicts the nativity in a different style and all are enchanting. We enjoyed strolling around the markets taking in the sights and smells. The pretty little stalls with their goods, the braziers and burning logs to warm yourself by and the Gluwein and Most (served from a cauldron hug over a wood fire) are all experiences to enjoy.
