2: Cincideutsch Christkindlmarkt (Cincinnati, Ohio):
Not only is this a classic German-style open market but it is also accompanied by the Macy’s annual lighting fest where everyone is just waiting for the big Christmas tree to sparkle up with all of its pretty lights and ornaments. You can enjoy skating in the fountain square or bargaining with vendors for quality items. Either way this is one festival you don’t want to miss.
