Admire the tree in St. Peter’s Square

You can’t leave Rome without having admired St. Peter’s Square, which at Christmastime becomes even more impressive thanks to the marvelous Christmas tree that soars in the middle of it. It’s a spruce tree of about 28 meters that landed here directly from Andalo, in the Dolomites. The huge and stunning Nativity Scene comes this year from the village of Chopcca in the Andes. It is composed of more than 30 pieces made by five famous artists from Huancavelica.

Luneur was renovated and reopened to the public in 2016: it is Rome Luna Park designed for children from 0 to 12 years.

The Garden of Wonders features glowing spheres, enchanted creatures straight from the Ice Kingdom, and a skating rink where penguins and polar bears will help even the youngest children skate.
