Christmas is different here but I think in a way that I can really appreciate. Christmas is a holiday not as much about expensive gifts and the like but about tradition and family and being grateful for one another.
One tradition that many Italian towns have is lights to celebrate certain saints days and festivals but nothing rivals Christmas lights. Salerno is is one city in southern Italy that really goes all out. It seems everywhere you look there are lights and displays to celebrate the season.
I will not wax poetic too much I will let the pictures speak for me.

Ristorante del Centro Storico I highly recommend it. Best meal so far in Italy.
