Danke Deutschland: Part 040: Funfairs are not only fun for children

The fairs in Germany offer wonderful festivals. You can indulge in culinary delights, shop for little treasures, ride on a carousel, visit ghost trains and much more. They are an integral part of Germany. Many people have fond childhood memories of visiting a funfair. Even in adulthood, people still like to visit the funfair. It offers a nice little outing for all sections of the German population.

At a funfair, you can escape from everyday life and stroll through a colourful hustle and bustle. Many people already appreciate this opportunity without having to buy anything themselves. But for little money there is already the possibility of getting a nice little treat or buying a little something for good friends. The "souvenir" from the fair is sure to delight the recipient. Similar to the circus, the fair also offers cultural entertainment that cannot be enjoyed every day.

The attractions of the funfair move from place to place, just like the people who offer them. When the funfair makes a guest appearance in your own town, it is a very special occasion for every German. Families visit the markets together with their children, creating unique moments. At some fairs, you can even ride a bumper car or take part in boxing. The fair offers something for everyone. There is a speciality for every age group. Even as a child in Germany, you often have a very specific little something in mind when you come to the funfair.

For some children it is the merry-go-round, for others the sweet candy floss or the beloved hot air balloon. This fond childhood memory provides a moment of happiness that is remembered for a lifetime. Even if the fair does not offer high culture, it does offer a special kind of happiness on a small scale. Not every country provides its inhabitants with such wonderful festivities. In any case, the German fair is one of the most important reasons to love your own country. Sometimes you forget the beautiful moments at the fair when you get older.

Then all you have to do is visit a beautiful fairground again and you will remember the happiness of your own childhood. The fairground is one of the most beautiful places. Perhaps this is also because it doesn't exist all year round. It can only be visited at very specific times. But when it does come to town, it is visited by the whole village or town. That's why you often meet people you haven't seen for many years at your local fair. The fair also reunites people who have not seen each other for a long time.

Even in the case of disputes and years of radio silence, a new encounter can take place here. Germany should be appreciated for its beautiful funfair and this market should be utilised much more again. The fair makes people happier than the shopping centre. This has to do with the fact that it offers colourful stalls and toys of all kinds. The German funfair preserves a childhood happiness for its visitors that they can call up again and again.
