Old Town Christmas Market

The Christmas market in the old town is usually very popular. Held at Stortorget, a very historic square in Stockholm. An annual event since 1837. It rained non-stop during my visit, so I walked around with my mirrorless Canon in one hand, and an umbrella in the other. The great thing about this market is that you can't sell crap. It has to be the real deal. Glögg. Polkagrisar. Karameller. Konstsmide. Korvar & viltkött. Hantverk. Sockervadd. Keramik. All the good stuff!

Wonderful street photos of the Christmas Market. Lots of people enjoying the day even when it's raining.
