Christmas in Italy, or Natale in Italian, begins its festivities on December 8th starting with the feast of the Immaculate Conception.
This is when Italians traditionally put up the Christmas tree. The Christmas celebrations carry on up until January 6 of the following year with the Epiphany, which is also referred to as the "Three Kings' Day".
We hope you have enjoyed viewing the Christmas tree webcam from this quaint Italian market place - and be sure to have a Merry Christmas.
