[quote=Anonymous]Berlin has ton going on. Between the Christmas markets, Charlottenburg, and the Potsdam palaces you can easily fill 5 days without trying. Given your kid's ages, I'd skip what my husband calls "the sad stuff" (the Wall, Jewish Memorial, Topography of Terror museum, Sachsenhausen, Stasi museum). If you go to Munich, Neuschwanstein is of course a big draw for day trips if your kids love castles. There's good hiking nearby, but I've not done it with small kids in December. Salzburg is also a short train ride (~1 hour each way) if you want to day trip. Christmas markets abound, and the BMW HQ and museum near the Olympic Stadium were a hit with my car-obsessed kid. After Berlin, Cologne is my favorite German city, although I'm definitely in the minority on that. I've also never been there with kids, so most of my recommendations would revolve around churches and drinking.[/quote]
