A common joke among Filipinos is that the country has the longest Christmas season, beginning as soon as the “ber” months start.
A mall in Quezon City looks to capitalize on the Filipino’s love for the season as it unveiled today its giant 50-foot-tall Christmas tree to the public.
The tree is decorated with classic toy figures and kid-inspired decor that aims to highlight feelings of joy for children and nostalgia for adults.
