This weekend I went to the Easter Market in Wiesbaden. The Easter Market is on until Sunday and Saturday seemed a good time to go. It has been a while since I have visited the centre of Wiesbaden. I have driven through a few times and the last time I had planned to go was to see the Swan Lake Ballet at the theatre but my daughter was not well so I missed it.

We were expecting some easter themed stalls with eggs and other easter paraphernalia but we didn't actually see a single one! The stalls were all either food or arts and crafts stalls. It did actually say that on the website though.

The market is setup in the main shopping street in the pedestrian zone in Wiesbaden. We first walked to the start of the shopping street and then proceeded to walk along. There were many stalls and lots of people out and about. Living in the countryside, it was nice to get a change of scenery and visit a city and see lots of people around.

Wiesbaden is a very posh place with some great architecture and a really posh vibe about it. It is kept very clean and you can see the buildings are all very well maintained too. It is a great place to walk around as there are lots of open spaces and plenty of places to grab a coffee or wine. We encountered a couple of stalls selling wine and they were very popular. In front of one there was probably the smallest stage ever with some live music. I recorded a small sample, click here.

Not only that, there is some lovely well kept parks all along the city centre where you can escape into some nature and feel that you are out of the city, but in the city. More to come of this in a future post.

Thanks for viewing.

Fantastic to see the Easter Market in Weisbaden Steve, and great to hear that you had a good day.

I was somewhere in that area on a vacation with my parents and siblings while I was still in school, not sure what year exactly but the late 90's as I was over 18, and we drove down to Frankfurt and then headed west along the Rhein river, it was very beautiful, and we got to taste some really great white wines too.

I think we mostly where on the south side of the Rhein river though, and I remember a great statue up on a hill of the German that kicked out the Romans, plus there was also this really fantastic clock tower with lots of things happening when it played.

Enjoy your Sunday and stay !ALIVE

Thanks Erik, it is a great wine growing region. Lots of Riesling! That sounds like a great trip Erik, there is lots happening on the Rhein, my parents are thinking to do the cruise this year. There is the Rhein in Flames that is very popular. I have also done some canoeing nearby too.

Have a great Sunday !ALIVE

Wow. Such open market is usually known as farmer's market here. If Igbo, my tribe in Nigeria is there, they will be hustling and bustling there and even own stalls too. Hahaha

Thats sounds cool Sammy. I am sure they would have a good time too. haha

Great photos. I always love looking through these types of outdoor markets to see the local crafts and wares.

I take it that the town is posh because its easily commutable from Frankfurt but out of the big city?

Thanks for checking it out.

It is the regional capital and seems to be just very well looked after. Im not sure there is much commuting to Frankfurt from here as there is plenty of work in and around Wiesbaden. There is one of the last US military bases in Hessen here too. !LUV !ALIVE

It seems you enjoyed there very much and I also love to visit such kind of place.

I felt good listening this clip even though it was for only 15 seconds. It would be better it you made that video a little bit lengthier.

Thanks for checking it out! I wlll make a longer video next time 🙂

This is amazing, incredible work. I love the pictures taken.

Thanks for checking them out. !CTP
