Sibu Christmas Trees 2013

After highlighting the Christmas trees and decoration at Klang Valley, it is time to pay homage to the decoration back home.

  
This year, the Christmas trees here didn't disappoint me and it is the best since its inception. No doubt about it and this is something the locals can be proud of.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
As usual, the Christmas trees were erected by the local well known companies as well as churches.

This is my son's favourite tree. He probably able to recognise it from the cartoon character he saw on TV.

 
The Christmas trees at Sibu Town Square pretty much transform the venue into wonderland especially at night when all the lights were up.

 
 
The upcoming New Year countdown will also be at the same venue and it is definitely the place to be the usher the new year.

X'mas Decoration 2013 @ The Curve


The Curve creates a little town as if Christmas was the most wonderful season celebrated.

The arch of green serve as the gimmick for the main entrance to this little town.

 
The town comes alive with Christmas trees of different shapes and sizes, all decorated with trinkets and ornaments.

 
The outdoor bazaar has transformed to some sort of Christmas Street/Bazaar this month.

X'mas Decoration 2013 @ Pavilion KL

X'mas decoration in Pavilion KL is always grand every year and it is no different this year. It has a giant snow man greeting shoppers at the main entrance.

It like a white Christmas once entering it with white arches and white giant Christmas tree.

 
There is a carousel at the main atrium as the main attraction where a long queue can be observed especially during the weekend.

X'mas Decoration 2013 @ Suria KLCC

Suria KLCC adopts an English Christmas concept as its centre court is decorated with a traditional English home complete with its very own fire place.

 
The centre stage is surrounded by traditional Christmas features such as the Christmas trees, giant teddy bear and toys.

 
 
 
There are also smaller scale decoration at each of its entrances. Notice some of the previous year decoration items are reused at these entrances (which is not really a bad thing as it reduces wastage).

Xmas Decoration 2013 @ The Gardens Mall

The Gardens Mall came out with a rather unique decoration this year. The theme adopted this year is "The Christmas Spirit" and the management is incorporating those message into their decoration.

 
Basically, the management came out with a concept of the interior of a home which is prep for the celebration.

 
 
 
 
It consists of a mini bar, bedroom, living room, fire place and dining room. How I wish to have a place like that to celebrate X'mas.

It is definitely one of the more classy decoration at the Klang valley which without a doubt will bring out the Christmas spirit in us.

X'mas Decoration 2013 @ 1 Utama

It was a pleasant surprise to see what 1 Utama came out for their X'mas decoration this year. The decoration here deviate from the traditional decoration such as X'mas trees, ginger bread, Santa Claus, toys and etc.

 
Instead the main concourse is filled with replicas of hot air balloons. This kind of scene reminds me of the annual Putrajaya Hot Air Balloon Fiesta.

 
 
 
With the floor covered with white background, it somehow setting the tone to celebrate Christmas.

It looks like a fresh idea as I do not notice any decoration items been recycled from the previous year.

Singapore X'mas Decoration 2013

X'mas decoration has began to be set up around Singapore as early as mid November and I am fortunate to experience it again for the second consecutive year.

  
Changi Airport also did their part with a giant Trojan horse and Spongebob characters at its Terminal 1 departure hall.

 
The Fullerton Hotel Singapore set up a X'mas tree which mainly made up of small teddy bears.

At VivoCity, a giant X'mas tree was erected near the Sentosa station. I reckon it will be a sight to behold at night.

My first time to Bugis also did not disappoint me with a few big structures been set up around Bugis Junction and its surrounding areas.

The highlight will definitely centred around Orchard Road. This is definitely the place to be to see the best X'mas decoration the country got to offer.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I usually made my journey from Plaza Singapore and walk my way down the shopping district. This year, I made it as far as Wisma Atria.

I notice some familiar decoration concept such as the Ferrero Rocher tree and the giant X'mas Tree at Ngee Ann City. Overall, they are beautiful, more so at night with all the lighting on.

This would be a perfect time to do X'mas shopping with the many offers and discount at most outlets which also entitle foreigners to claim the GST back when bringing those purchases home.
