Christmas Decorations in Rio de Janeiro

2005

These pictures were taken by me and my friend Lu at the shopping malls "Iguatemi" and "Shopping Tijuca" in November 2005, and at the malls "Barrashopping" and "New York City Center" in December 2005, all located in Rio de Janeiro.

Shopping Tijuca

A sleigh pulled by reindeer and the little train that takes children for a ride along the Christmas scene.	Nativity scenes are very traditional during Christmas in Brazil and appear in most Christmas decorations.
