As for fairs taking place in the capital of Switzerland, Onion Market traditionally held on Bundesplatz at the end of November deserves special mention. Here you can meet its countless varieties, as well as dishes prepared from it, including onion pies, onion sauces, cheeses containing this vegetable. The festival ends with an action interesting for children - throwing confetti. In December, it's time for a Christmas fair in the Old Town. Everything reminds of a festive event - incendiary lights, Christmas singing, the smell of traditional Christmas dishes immerse you in the magical atmosphere. Major city markets are on Munsterplatz and Waisenhausplatz.
