Christmas in Colombia

 

   Christmas celebrations in Colombia start on December 16th. In homes families build up a nativity scene (called el pesebre). 

   On Christmas Eve there is a family celebration. The figure of baby Jesus is added to the nativity scene, prayers are said, carols are sung, a special meal is eaten and at midnight presents are exchanged.
