Unbelievably busy Shanghai Christmas Market

Join me as we visit the Rock Bund in Shanghai China and visit the European styled Christmas market. It was very international with stalls from Persia and Korea as well as Germany and pizzas. This market has become incredibly popular, and even though tickets are relatively cheap they sell out early and give you a one and a half hour time slot, however you are not forced to leave the area until to choose to leave. There was a stall with some very nicely styled candy floss which became very popular so the queues were over an hour long to get served, but in the end I think it was worth it.
