Alsace is a traditional venue for Christmas markets, there are several hundred of them, and the market in Colmar is periodically recognised as the most beautiful in France. Colmar, of course, also has a lot of tourists, but it is a small town, so in most locations here you can walk more or less freely. And the city is better decorated than Strasbourg.
We walked twice, in the morning and in the evening. The market locations are set in several places in the old town, so we recommend having a map.

There is a Ferris wheel that offers a very good view of the city, we were also relatively lucky with the weather.
