Christmas markets are a very popular part of every Christmas. Cities decorate their streets and buildings, set up stalls and create a general atmosphere. We set out to compare Advent markets to my favorite Vienna. On the way back, we will spend the night in Brno at the Courtyard by Marriott hotel, and in the morning we will set out to explore local markets. Also worth mentioning is the real Italian pizza from the Pizza Bussi CIao restaurant, which also offers gluten-free pizza. Where are the better markets? Where is the prettier decoration and where can we find the best punch in the world? What will the hotel breakfast and dinner be like as part of the half-board? Why did we have to travel in Business class instead of the Standard - Astra car of the Regiojet carrier?
