Christmas Markets in London 倫敦的圣誕集市

There will be a huge Christmas Market in Hyde Park, too. It’s open from 22nd November all the way to 4th Jauary 2009, 10 am till 10 pm each? day, and it’s modelled on the traditional German markets.? Refreshments will include bratwurst and a hog roast as well as gingerbread and mulled wine, and there will be choirs singing Christmas carols.

The Southbank Centre will have the Cologne Market,? with authentic wooden and tin toys, Christmas decorations, and Santa’s Secret Village. It’s open from 21st November to 23rd December, 10am till 10 pm.

Carry on along the South Bank to find the Bankside Winter Festival? -based on the famous Frost Fair which used to take place when the Thames froze over every winter.? Saturday 13th December will feature a procession of boats carrying the Frost Fair flags down the River Thames - after which the liverymen will be parading through the market in their traditional uniforms. That should be fun. The fair will be open from 12th to 21st December.

Being a foodie though I’ll probably head further along the south bank for the Christmas market at Borough Market,? with special expanded opening hours! Christmas carols are also promised.

倫敦的圣誕集市

圣誕節(jié)集市是德國(guó)以及歐洲中部的的傳統(tǒng)。在那里你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)圣誕節(jié)商品琳瑯滿目——姜餅、溫酒、圣誕蛋糕、圣誕裝飾品。例如，紐倫堡有一個(gè)很大的圣誕集市。

格林威治是一個(gè)從12月10號(hào)開(kāi)始熱鬧起來(lái)的特殊圣誕集市。那有適宜成人及兒童引用的溫酒。從20號(hào)到23號(hào)，圣誕老人會(huì)待在他的“仙洞”里，一個(gè)“仙洞”的價(jià)格是3鎊。

倫敦海德公園也有一個(gè)很大的圣誕集市。它從11月22日到2009年1月4號(hào)每天早上10點(diǎn)到晚上10點(diǎn)開(kāi)放。它是仿照德國(guó)傳統(tǒng)的圣誕集市操作的。那里的點(diǎn)心有臘腸、熱騰騰的烤肉、圣誕蛋糕及溫酒。那里還有圣誕樂(lè)隊(duì)演奏了圣誕頌歌。

南岸的中心有一個(gè)科隆超市，有精美的木制品及錫制玩具、圣誕裝飾品、圣誕老人的神秘村莊。它從11月21日到12月23日每天早上10點(diǎn)到晚上10點(diǎn)開(kāi)放。

忙于在南岸尋找冬季盛典的河岸風(fēng)光——著名的隆冬盛大集市。當(dāng)每年冬天的泰晤士河水開(kāi)始結(jié)冰之后，這樣的盛大集市就開(kāi)始了。12月13號(hào)那天正好是星期六，那時(shí)泰晤士河面上一系列的船只載著隆冬盛展大旗在河面上并稱一排。——在此之后，一些身穿制服的人會(huì)在集市中列隊(duì)前進(jìn)。那樣會(huì)很有趣。集市將在12月12號(hào)到21號(hào)開(kāi)放。

作為一個(gè)美食家，我還是想在伯樂(lè)市場(chǎng)特別營(yíng)業(yè)時(shí)段到沿著南岸直走到達(dá)伯樂(lè)市場(chǎng)去看那里的集市。
