Hamburg Germany Dom fair 

Hamburg Dom, Jahresmarkt (Year Market — German term for a State Fair type experience)

Amusement parks are hard to come by in Germany. Perhaps rightly so, Germans seem to miss the point of expensively designed roller coasters, huge entertainment centers, and huge ticket prices packed into a Busch Gardens or Six Flags experience. Instead, they have the yearly (Or rather, thrice yearly) market which we would call the State Fair. 

You’ll find the usual entertainments - whack a mole, shooting galleries, rigged games, badly ripped-off images of celebrities and cartoon characters painted on the sides of booths, rides that are so jerky you’ll puke, but there are some exotic features as well (Such as the very strange and somewhat hokey “Medieval Section” - complete with a “Dark Ages” reenactment). If you’re lucky to be in Hamburg when the fair is going on, don’t miss it.
