As it's never very Christmassy here we've been going to Christmas markets in germany for the last few years to try and get into the Christmas spirit. This year we thought that we give the the one in Valkenburg a try instead.
As we woke up rather early on Saturday morning we decided to go and see what it was like. Saturday was the first day so we were expecting it to be really busy but figured if we left Rotterdam early enough it shouldn't be too bad. Valkenburg is about 2.5 hours drive away so we got there just before 11am and managed to find a parking garage very close to the caves.
The market itself wasn't too bad, some Christmasy stuff and some other random things like bedsheets! It was still pretty quite which was nice. We bought a couple of little things and then decided that we would wander around Valkenburg for a while and then we found another cave market. The second one was much busier than the first one and we got fed up of the pushing and shoving pretty quickly and decided to head back to the car.
Valkenburg looks like a nice place to visit so I think that we'll go back again when the Christmas market isn't on and have a proper wander around.
