Where to find the best Christmas markets?

We have some tips!

1) On the Gendarmenmarkt / Bebelplatz you will find the classic Berlin Christmas market. It is a beautiful square with stately buildings at Unter den Linden.

2) There is a smaller Christmas market in the Sophienstrasse with a focus on sustainability.

3) The Japanese Christmas market in the east of Kreuzberg is also nice.
