We were just in time for their spring market - you had to pay 15 euros as an adult to get in, but you also get a free visit to the Schloss.
This place is good for kids and family, of course, also ideal for a couple like us.
Inside the park, there are about 200 vendors. Most of them are selling clothes, flowers, and food/cafe. All the clothes are more for elders, but it was still nice to walk around and see some small stuff from the locals.
What I love about this spring market was that people truly dress up as sailors or beach styles to match the scene of the fair. It was a great people watching time :)
The food and coffee stands were also fine; you could sit on their fake sand beach, and just enjoy people watching and the beautiful weather! Most of the shops here are not over price, which was also a real plus!
As what I know, their Christmas market is even more awesome - especially the Schloss (Castle) will be lighted up by tons of beautiful Christmas light bulbs. If you have a change, don't forget to check out their website and come!
