Christkindelsmärik — the Christmas market & La Neustadt
7 stops8:00 AM – 8:30 PM
Morning9:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Best light: Midday, when the sun is high enough to reach the bottom of boulevards this wide — the scale is the subject here and it needs light on both sides of the street

Evening8:30 PM · after dark
Best light: After dark on a weekday, when the chalets are lit and the crowd is a third of what it is at the weekend — the market is a night subject and it looks like nothing at two in the afternoon
Late November to 24 December only, typically from late morning until about 8:00 PM, with security screening at the entrances to the island
