IT’S the most wonderful time of the year, and, like many persons, you are eager to see what the holiday has in store for you.
If it is that you are looking for somewhere exciting to take your family during the Christmas season, or perhaps you need to get into the Christmas spirit, here are three must-visit locations that are perfect for either:
1: MOVIETOWNE CHRISTMAS VILLAGE

The MovieTowne Mall, at Turkeyen, is once again inviting Guyanese (and tourists) from all around to unwrap the magic of Christmas at its Christmas Village, which will be opened every day until Christmas from 15:00hrs.
According to management, patrons can get a chance to meet popular Christmas characters like the Grinch, Santa Claus, Mrs. Claus, their elves, and much more for only $500.
In addition, you can take a tour around the mall and see all the elegantly decorated stores to see all they have to offer.

2: THE RAHAMAN CHRISTMAS TREE

Did you miss the Rahaman Christmas Tree light-up on December 01, 2024?
Not to worry! You can still visit this distinctive Christmas Tree with your family.
Approximately 20 years ago, the Rahaman family started a tradition synonymous with the Guyanese Christmas experience. Located at the Rahaman’s Park Triangle on the lower East Bank Demerara, passers-by can stop any evening and view the tree that has been a part of many Christmases locally.

3: MAIN STREET CHRISTMAS VILLAGE
Maybe travelling to the East Coast is not your cup of tea; instead, visit the Main Street Christmas Village where you can not only see all that Guyana has to offer, but be immersed in the striking décor and elegance displayed throughout the Village.
At present, the Christmas Village is adorned with traditional Christmas decorations, and festive lights around the trees. It truly is a sight to behold.

What is different this year is the addition of the first “One Guyana Supermarket”, which is intended to promote local small and medium enterprises (SMEs). It gives everyone who visits the village a chance to experience, first-hand, what Christmas in Guyana is like.
The Christmas Village was opened on December 3, 2024. Over the years, the Christmas Village on Main Street has become a “must see” each December for both locals and tourists.
