Live nativity on streets of Colombian capital

Bogota will soon soak up the holiday ambience with a live nativity show, scheduled to roam the Candelaria neighborhood between December 16 and 24.

Joseph, Mary, the Three Kings and the other nativity actors will be represented in this street entertainment performance, taking place everyday at noon in a different location each day.

“We want to offer all the tourists and inhabitants of the Candelaria this wonderful live nativity scene (…) so that they can enjoy a magical moment,” said Fernando Saenz, who runs a hotel in the neighborhood.
