Busch Garden's Christmas Town


Since it's the christmas season, I've decided to do a post on Busch Gardens Christmas Town. I've never been to Busch Garden's Christmas Town, but I've heard a lot of good things about it. So hear are my ideas and suggestions for Christmas Town in both Williamsburg and Tampa. In each section of the parks, they will display different traditions from European countries.  


England
In England, the area will be decorated and themed in a Victorian era with Dickensian Christmas carolers and the three ghosts of Christmas past, present, and future will interact with the patrons. 


Italy 
The Italian section of the park, guests will be welcomed by Befana, the christmas witch and the take part in the Roman festival of Saturnalia. 

Germany
The German Village will house a christkindlmarkt with a variety of old fashioned toys, baked goods, and authentic old world gifts. While St Nicolas wonders the streets, accompanied with the Christkind and Krampus or Knecht Ruprecht, in search for children who have been good or bad. The festhaus will  provide entertainment for visitors of stage production based on The Nutcracker.             


Scotland 
In Scotland, the stables feature barnyard animals and figures portraying scenes from the Nativity Story.
