Lighting up Christmas Tree in Florence, Italy

Hi,

I attended lighting up of the Christmas Tree in Florence
This is my very first time abroad when I see Christmas
I come from India and I don't celebrate christmas back at home
Though many people in India do celebrate
But staying over here and looking at all this is a totally different experience for me

It was very crowded
Everyone was on the streets today
The whole city is lit up with different types of lights
I shall put pictures of these beautiful lights later in some other post

Today I want to share with you a video where you can see that I walk on the golden floor (well it looks like gold) and the parade that passed through the christmas tree to the other areas of the city
And also some pictures
I'm really sorry for the bad quality of the pictures
But don't blame me, I was too excited to see the big christmas tree and it was way too crowded so couldn't get a good angle

The tree has been put up in front of the main cathedral of the city - santa maria aka duomo
After the ceremony of lighting up the tree, a huge procession of santa claus came forward, and they distributed candies to everyone ^-^
Later, another parade passed through us
This one had people carrying flags of florence

Enjoy the video
Have nice day! :)
