Eastern Charm
The East Coast celebrates with
timeless elegance. In New York, the
Rockefeller Center tree, the Rockettes, and Fifth Avenue windows
make December unforgettable.
In Massachusetts, candlelight carol services 昀椀ll historic churches,
while Pennsylvania’s Bethlehem
earns its name as “Christmas City,
USA,” with streets glowing in golden
lights. Down in Virginia, Colonial Williamsburg brings history to life with
handmade wreaths, 昀椀fe and drum
parades, and warm cider in hand.
Southern Spirit
Western Magic
Christmas in the South comes with
sweet tea, twinkle lights, and a big
helping of hospitality. In Tennessee,
the Smoky Mountains shine with
millions of lights at Dollywood’s
Christmas Festival. Louisiana lights
bon昀椀res along the Mississippi River
to guide Papa Noël, while in Texas,
everything — from the parades to
the light displays — is bigger and
brighter. Even in Florida, you’ll 昀椀nd
palm trees strung with ornaments
and “snow” made of soap bubbles
at beachside events.
Out West, the holidays mix adventure with wonder. In Colorado, skiers trade sleigh bells for ski bells,
celebrating Christmas on the slopes
before cozying up by the 昀椀replace.
California blends surfboards with
Santa hats — think festive boat parades and lights re昀氀ected on the
Paci昀椀c Ocean. Nevada’s Las Vegas
turns the Strip into a sparkling spectacle, while Washington and Oregon
keep things cozy with evergreen forests, hot chocolate, and handmade
gifts from local artisans.
