[@danielaausten7810]

Wonderful video - thank you so much. I will be visiting from Germany on Dec 8 with my daugther. I love Edinburgh and have been here several times but never around Christmas time. Hence very excited :)

[@clarerodgers3025]

thanks for a great summary of what is open so far, really helpful 😊

[@earnesterine]

Thank you for this video!! I'm going to Edinburgh for Christmas. It looks so magical!

[@KateLindsay_Kat]

Yassss it’s all so beautiful !!!

[@AElyse-zb9ko]

Girl we went day 1 Nov 15th! So crowded but so worth it! We rode of the swing! It was really cool to ride that high next to the Scott monument! I liked the long walk they created and all the lights. Super cute Christmas market. I just wish they had more home made goods. Thankful for your other recommendations to shop and support local artists! I also got a pin that you created!

[@drpigeyes]

Thank you so much for covering this!! When I studied abroad I went on a misadventure on my first day attempting to get a burger downtown during the market. It's good to see what it's supposed to look like while I'm not terrified and holding chippy in my hands!

[@JasonJacobsII]

This is super exciting, we're planning on visiting Edinburgh in late November next year, hopefully we'll get to see the Christmas market then!

[@FalcomScott312]

Wow, the Christmas 🎄 markets there in Edinburgh, Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 looks very impressive! We here in London, England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 already have our Christmas markets opened up like in Leicester Square area & Carnaby Street as well! Thanks for sharing Kakibot & Happy Holidays to you! ❤️💚

[@adrirajdatta8119]

I even went there last Saturday 😊

[@Lyces]

Thanks for going so i don't have to endure those crowds :D

[@camera_and_floss.Kirsty]

Only in Edinburgh would the cut down the tress besides the national gallerys to improve the accessibility in Prince street garden then block access to the same path with a gigantic light up Edinburgh sign. It a lovely photogenic sign but takes away a 3rd of the paths and stairs it could be on the grass besides the mound like it used to be besides the Norwegian tree looked fab there.

[@Ronald-o9x]

That's very true. It was a scandal cutting those trees down and now you have plastic market stalls in there place! I won't forgive Edinburgh council for doing this. Won't go back to Edinburgh!

[@sheikahchic]

I’m looking forward to taking a turn through it even more, now!! I love the illuminations, and that they have those photo spots set up. Definitely prepping myself for the crowd beforehand, though. 😂

[@sarahwithanhyouheathen3210]

I would love to go to this. Thanks so much for showing it to us. It is my dream to live in Edinburgh someday. Just a normal person going to work every day, living a normal life and enjoying the beauty of Scotland.

[@ihatecrazyfrog]

Thank you for this :)

[@assleepyassayu4619]

the odds! We went also on Saturday! (I would recommend going before sunset from the national gallery entrance, the queue after dark is too overwhelming and a long trek until the main section) I was excited for the pies as well since they have been in the George Square assembly section for two years, prices a bit high but the same as they charged for fringe this year! I do feel sad there's no chocolate strawberries and coated marshmellow stall this year or raclette (did I miss it?) also no Alanda's (I'm guessing it'll be on George's? ) This year seemed like there is less repetition and chaos but more 'engineered finesse'!

[@HedvikaGrusova]

You are on Edinburgh Live. Good luck with that.

[@Kakibot]

Something to check off that '24 bingo card 😂

[@laurag9526]

I was here yesterday, it was £9 for a crepe (£7 for the crepe + £2 for the Nutella)! At the Christmas markets in Germany it's like €6.

[@christophermalone6313]

Wowwww. I love the host but I instantly clicked subscribe because of the "cinematography". So many channels would +10 with a camera person like this.

[@CamilaOliveira-yw3oq]

Very nice video ♡

[@simonmountney]

As pretty as they are expensive. Worth a visit, but keep in mind that the grub will empty your wallet

[@Thumtwiddler]

And not fill your belly! #teensyweensy

[@TheEmpressgoth]

[@ouime60]

£9 for a crepe..! Are you kidding me, Edinburgh? 😳

How far is the markets from Waverley station does anyone know? Never been.. Thanks x

[@Kakibot]

Right next to it! There are certain exits that would take you straight to the markets entrance, but pretty much any you choose will get you like… a minute or two walk from it!

[@erin4002]

Thank you so much 💓

[@daniw4789]

i've been there last friday just when they opened... very charming atmosphere... but the prices for food and drink..holy shit... one so-called original Bratwurst from Germany 9 £, a small cup of (bad) Glühwein 7£....but hey, i was the first time there... so only because of the vibe😄

[@gabrielfuentes4904]

Is it open on weekdays? Or is it only open between weekends

[@Kakibot]

Every day! .)

[@davidpierce3217]
