Most of us usually decorate the

Christmas tree on 8th of December.

Our presepe is a representation of the

nativity scene made with small statues. Children

go looking for some moss in the country, so we

make it more realistic.

In some villages there is the tradition of

representing the Nativity scene.

Between the last days of November and the first of December in

Our town turns on! Everybody starts to decorate their house

with coloured blinking lights and in the main square a big christmas

tree shines.

Children write their letters to Father

Christmas to ask him for some gifts.
