Christmas Nazareth-style market in Alicante

One of the various markets that are installed in Alicante city for the holidays this year is the mercado Nazareno in the Plaza Gabriel Miro.



There are stalls with home-made goods and crafts...



Artisans...




Musicians and dancers...


Freshly baked bread and cakes from a log-fired oven...


And a live animal or two...





There is also a real Bethlehem scene, where you can visit the Virgin Mary in the stable where Jesus is born. 



Its on for a few days only and totally free to wander around and enjoy the atmosphere.

What kind of markets do the put up for the Christmas period where you live?
