Nice and cozy Christmas market - Cozy little town and great Christmas market. We took the Flixbus bus from Berlin to Leipzig and it was about 2.15 minutes direct bus. Smooth and simple. We stayed at the hotel Capri by Frasier, it was very close to the bus and the train station. At most 10 - 15 minutes to walk. Close to everything. The Christmas market was nearby. Is there a tram to get there. Watched Icefighters hockey at home. If you go near Christmas, remember that there are a lot of people and book a table if the restaurant you want to go to is open. Can recommend Shiki an Asian restaurant. We brought in surf and turf. Super tasty and friendly staff.
