  • Nothing ever seems too bad, too hard or too sad when you’ve got a Christmas tree in the living room. All those presents under it, all that anticipation. Just a way of saying there’s always light and hope in the world. — J.D. Robb

As we get closer and closer to Christmas, we start to see our surroundings change before our very eyes. No longer do we walk past gloomy barely lit streets as the familiar glow of Christmas lights adorn our pathways. A jolly figure can be seen lurking about in every corner, as Santa Claus and his merry reindeer take up nearly every block. Truly, it’s a joyous time when the Christmas decor starts to come up in anticipation of the beloved holiday season.

Even our go-to hangout spots start to put up extravagant displays of merriment. Take for instance the four iconic Ayala malls in Makati. Ayala Malls Circuit, One Ayala, Greenbelt, and Glorietta have all set ablaze their lights for the public to enjoy as part of a tree-lighting ceremony.
