Festival of trees

Picture
You have to check out this new addition to Christmas Village / Love Park! Corner of 16th and JFK is a rotunda / pavilion. From the outside, you observe a lot of decorated trees. Walk inside for the best part! I had the chance for a conversation with the woman responsible for almost all the decorations. Could not believe 1 person did almost everything.

Take your time walking around, seriously. Every tree is different with a separate theme. Santa was there for the kids (and adults who have not forgotten).

Festival of Trees is an essential part of your Philadelphia Holiday Experience. The perfect addition to what I call a Holiday Town. Combining Christmas Villages at Love Park / City Hall, Winter Village / Dilworth Park, Holiday Extravaganza / Comcast Center, Dicken's Village and Light Show / Macy's. Seriously, plan on spending at least a few hours here. Don't forget about gift shopping (do all of mine at various Christmas Villages / Holiday Markets). Seriously, stop by the great food / beverage vendors! Plus, bring the family for the perfect holiday experience, especially at City Hall!!!!

Right off Important Tip: Try to arrive early. Love Park is part of a huge Christmas Village extending across the street (Dilworth Park / City Hall). Saturday, opening weekend, by 1:30 decent crowd (started at noon). With longer lines at hot beverages / bratwurst.

Day or night, Christmas Village / Love Park you will love! Love Park is an essential part of personal / professional holiday tradition. In addition to vendors / food / beverages, stage with live performances / German weekend! Also, part of holiday shopping tradition!!!! You will find great / unique gifts and ways to treat yourself. Special ornaments for holiday tree can easily be found here. Have pets? Can't forget presents for them under the tree, covered!

Christmas Village / Love Park is a great way to start your Philadelphia holiday experience. Maybe make add to your traditions...

In addition to excellent holiday shopping at vendors / artists. You won't leave hungry / thirsty over the top food / beverages. "Those trees look so beautiful" Festival of Trees.
