In spite of the looming economic crisis, Filipinos still find it in their hearts and spirits to celebrate the holidays, especially the Yuletide season. This has nothing to do with religion — we just love to be festive, whether we’re Muslim or Christian or otherwise.

Each year, Mana-Davao delights Dabawenyos with their roadside Christmas lights display in front of their building in Bajada. Unlike some establishments that churn out the same set every Christmas, Mana makes it a point to put on a different show every time. And what a treat it is indeed! It’s actually become a local tourist attraction, and many flock to the spot to take pictures come December.

Here are the photos we took the other day when Chattee and I went on another photo safari of the city.

May you and your loved ones enjoy a blissful Christmas, and hopefully, a more fulfilling year ahead!
