Edinburgh Christmas markets have become an iconic feature over the years with thousands attending it through the festive season.
While the future of the stalls were briefly uncertain, it gave us a chance to think back at what they have been like previously. Of course, with every year they have been there, the smell of the Bratwurst and Pretzels fills the mound.
The first Christmas markets started in 1999, as the German Markets in the city centre and since then the event has grown and attracted more and more visitors to the city.
