      <description><![CDATA[<p>Christmas markets were once synonymous with shepherds. Now, thanks to a collaboration between Palma City Council and two Nordic businessmen, they're also synonymous with products that have no tradition or connection whatsoever with the Balearic Islands. In Feixina, one of the most egregious examples of citizen participation in recent times has unfolded, a business venture that makes no sense whatsoever because it's neither a German Christmas market brought to Mallorca nor, of course, a local market.</p>]]></description>

Workers have completed its dismantling after the controversy it generated, a decision publicly celebrated by the Barrio Cívico Neighborhood Association. "Improvised decisions made behind the backs of the citizens are unacceptable. To err is human, to forgive divine," they stated on social media, emphasizing that the Palma City Council "did not endorse an installation placed out of place."</p>]]></description>

The Barrio Cívico Residents' Association accuses the organizers of cutting branches from a tree that bothered them. "They've become obsessed with putting the German market in Feixina Park no matter what, against the wishes of residents, local artisans, the trees, whatever it takes," they wrote in a tweet. They criticize the fact that, to accommodate attractions like a slide, vegetation has been "damaged" and mobility has been reduced within a heavily used public space.</p>]]></description>
