We continue south along Lake Wolfgangsee to the market in Strobl that takes place only Friday through Sundays during Advent. We were told at the St. Gilgen market that this is another glorious market. After a 15 minute drive, we arrive to yet another beautiful market with the special charms of Christmas: opulent lights, full size wooden carved nativity scene and logs burning from the inside out.

There are many logs placed throughout the market that are burning from the inside out. They produce a lot of heat and warm up our fingertips.

The life size, hand carved wood Nativity scene is beautiful.

As we stroll through this market with the snow crunching under our boots, we enjoy another mug of gluhwein and take in the scenes of Christmas. It is truly breathtaking. The country setting is wonderful and what I have been looking for in a market.
