–Only around 7 hours of daylight by month’s end

November is dark and cold, with daylight shrinking to around seven hours by the end of the month, but the city’s first Christmas markets usually open in its final weeks.

Scores and crowd levels are my own judgement; temperatures are monthly averages. Higher scores are better: quieter, cheaper and more pleasant.
