Taos, New Mexico - Distinct Christmas breaks! Get best prices right away!

For a truly distinct take on Christmas festivities, prepare a vacation to Taos during the course of the holiday. The town's Native American and Hispanic influences prevail, inspiring a multicultural flourish to the holiday season with entertainments like the illuminating of Ledoux Street, when the charming street's stores, studios, galleries and museums deliver music, drink and food, and bonfires to passersby's, and the avenue is lined with farolitos, or little lanterns, warmly shining.

taos's Christmas tree lighting takes place at the end of November in a festivity that involves carol singing and the arrival of Santa Claus in a vintage fire truck. In the days preceding Christmas, the town in addition rejoices in the Hispanic practice, "Las Posadas", a candlelight processional at Ranchos de Taos Plaza, and also a representation of Los Pastores, a Spanish morality play.
