For the second year in a row, the Covid-19 pandemic has cast a pall over Germany's Christmas markets.
Germany's Christmas markets are a huge draw for international tourists, with millions of visitors usually flocking to them for a festive experience each year.Germany has seen Covid cases rise rapidly in recent months.
Those that have decided to remain open are operating under more restrictions and have implemented strict entry rules for visitors, who must show their vaccination status or that they have recently recovered from Covid-19. These restrictions are known as "2G rules" as they refer to people who are vaccinated — "geimpft" in German — or recovered, "genesen."
Reiter said the cancellation would be "bitter news" for Munich residents and stall owners, but "the extreme situation in our hospitals and exponentially rising infection rates leave me no other choice." A sign indicating an obligation to wear face masks is seen at the Christmas market in the city of Duisburg, western Germany on November 29, 2021.The closure of the Christmas market is a blow to stall-holders, but officials have been caught between a rock and a hard place.
