Natale in Italia

Christmas is usually a beautiful time of year everywhere, and Italy is no exception. All of the streets in Rome are covered in lights.

Trastevere

Via del Corso


The restaurants are all decorated

near Pantheon

on Largo Argentina
 

There are Christmas trees and nativities everywhere

booth selling nativity pieces

Nativity and tree in Piazza Venezia
And they even have a Christmas carnival in Piazza Navona

Where else can you find cheesy carnivals next to some of Bernini's masterpieces?



Torrone is one of Italy's traditional Christmas sweets. Panettone is the another

In Italy, this witch delivers presents on the Feast of the Magi

just for you dad...




Everything is so beautiful. It makes me very excited to go home and spend the holidays with my family… After Switzerland of course.
