Over the years, I have visited several times the Strasbourg Xmas Market. It takes place on 2 adjacent squares. The Xmas ambiance is particularly strong when you visit after dark (after 5:00PM) but it has become very commercial with lots of made-in-china stuff and very crowded!!!
For my taste now I much prefer to visit the Xmas Market in Colmar which is 35 miles South. The market displays are spread, downtown, over several smaller squares and along pedestrian streets surrounded by lots of old historic Alsasian houses and permanent business. The entire setting is very quaint. Tourists will feel quite at ease because the general area offers a wide selection of hotels, restaurants, museums, pastry-shops and grocery-stores.
