Houses full of Christmas Lights







This pictures are just a few of biggest famous houses in Policarpio St. Mandaluyong City, Philippines. It has been tradition of the people in the area to decorate their houses with as much christmas lights and decorations their houses can carry. Every thing is covered with small twinkling lights, from the gazebo to the roof deck and even up to the small antenna. About 150m of the street is closed to vehicular traffic on weekends beginning late November 'til early January every year to give way to the big crowd flocking the place to get a glimpse of these enchanting houses as if the electricity bill doesnt matter to the owners.One of the owner said they are happy if they saw people happy. It goes to show that the spirit of love is really in their hearts and one aim is to make some people happy.Visitors would have to park their vehicles in the adjacent streets and walk down through Policarpio St. to experience the event named "Pasko-Pasko sa Policarpio". Keep those cameras clicking for that cool combination of starry lights. Thus this place became a tourist attraction.
