No matter whether it’s cold or hot where you live right now, Christmas is still long-awaited and joyful holiday for many of us, and it’s getting closer and closer. Certainly, it’s difficult to imagine this wonderful celebration coming to pass without one of its main symbol: a beautiful and unique Christmas tree. Every year, many cities around the world seek to create a unique design for their Christmas trees to impress both tourists and locals.

Bright Side took a look at what’s on offer this year in different corners of the world, and put together this collection of the most beautiful Christmas trees that really impressed us.
