Hello Guneet, we spent a week in Switzerland last December and visited many Christmas markets. I recommend you check out the website I used which is christmasmarkets.com where you can find out more. I have checked out dates for some of the markets we visited and they are as follows:- Basel open till 23rd Dec, Biel open till 24th Dec, Montreux till 24th Dec, Bern till 29th Dec and Zurich till 31st Dec. There is no info on dates for Lausanne so go to Lausanne tourist website. Unfortunately Lucerne finishes on 22nd Dec. I strongly recommend Montreux as it was our favourite. Zurich's market is in the main railway station so easy to get to. Bern has two markets and the city is very pretty decorated for the season. As Annika says you can reach Bern by train easily from Interlaken and Zurich from Lucerne. The Bern markets have more atmosphere than Zurich probably because they are outdoors but of the two cities we prefer Lucerne to Interlaken which would make the choice more difficult. Have a good time whatever you decide!! Happy Christmas. Maggie
