Bonn's town hall, an elegant white building with gold trim, provides a backdrop for Bonn's busy market square.
The scene is especially picturesque in December, when the Christmas Market fills the square with light and music.
From December 1 through Christmas Eve, the beautiful old town hall becomes a giant Advent calendar, with a new window lighted each day. The surrounding streets and squares make up one of Bonn's smartest shopping areas.
