They probably assumed this is like a theme park or something and not an actual city that people actually live in year round. Cities having nice, people friendly places away from cars? Who’s ever heard of that?

    I dont think OP realizes how disgustingly car-centric German culture is. They probably do, in fact, have parking garages

    There also are a lot of tourists coming to the Christmas markets, sometimes from quite far away.

    Those people either completely take public transit (they'll be drinking anyways, so public transit is easier to get back home) or go for the park + ride offers that pop up during that time. It works pretty well.

    This is /c/fuckcars not r/americabad.

    Chicago has three Christkindlmarkets that look just like the above, all accessible by public transit. It's okay to celebrate what we're doing right.
