The children feel that Santa Claus is coming to town with this colorful house of Santa built in front of the provincial capitol. It was designed as bungalow full of colored Christmas lights that shine at night. And in the inside, it is full of presents and kids’ toys. You can also see the different life sized Santa Claus and a Belen on the other side. In another corner, there’s a greeting corner where children can write their Christmas wishes.
This year’s Christmas theme reflects the importance of a family. There’s no happier moment than celebrating Christmas together. The public is waiting every year for the lighting of the giant Christmas tree, but this time, the provincial government crafts another stunning decoration other than the giant Christmas tree that makes the capitol façade more attractive
“We changed the theme this year to remind us all the importance of a family. This House of Santa represents one roof where a family stays together to celebrate Christmas. The Belen also represents that God is the center of the celebration of each family” Governor Ryan Singson said.
The house of Santa is formally opened to public on November 15, 2016. People flocked to witness the lighting ceremony including the setting alight of the giant Christmas tree. This now serves as tourist attraction especially during night time where the scenic view can be glanced because of the beautiful Christmas lights around it. # Source – PIO Ilocos Sur
