The picture to the left is of the Nuremberg Christkindlesmarkt; I used to live about ten miles away from this gorgeous town square and was able to visit the Christkindlesmarkt. Since I was feeling a bit nostalgic for some lebkuchen, I found this site from Germany's Department of Tourism, Christmas Markets in Germany, an excellent way to travel down Memory Lane.

The site is organized by region, which then narrows down to specific cities. Northern Germany, Eastern Germany, Southern Germany, and Western Germany are all represented here.
