## Details

Let's spend the day exploring Christmas in Bethlehem!
There are several events planned. You can attend them all or choose al a carte! **You must purchase your own tickets.** Details are at the bottom of this description.

**First Event: Christkindlmarkt**
We'll start at 10 am at Christkindlmarkt at 711 E 1st St, Bethlehem, PA for one of the best holiday markets in the US, featuring handmade works by some of the nation's finest artisans.
If you wish, you can enjoy a performance by the Lower Macungie Middle School Cadence Choir at 11 am. Snacks are available at the food court at the market.

**Second Event: Lunch**
Around 2:30 pm we will leave the market and stroll down Main Street to Mama Nina's at 546 Main St. This is an adorable little restaurant that has homestyle Italian dishes and the best garlic knots I have ever had! They don't take reservations, but going in the middle of the afternoon should not mean a very long wait.

**Third Event: Trees of Historic Bethlehem**
After eating, we'll walk 2 blocks to the Moravian Museum of Bethlehem at 66 West Church Street to start a self-guided tour of the Trees of Historic Bethlehem. Decorated by the Bethlehem Garden Club, this year’s Trees of Historic Bethlehem lets you experience cities from across the US without having to board a plane! Journey across three historic sites where over 20 trees display city-themed decorations. While viewing the trees – complete a scavenger hunt for ornaments highlighting World Heritage Sites and National Historic Landmarks throughout the US.

**Fourth Event: Christmas City Stroll**
We will wrap up the day with a Christmas City Stroll at 6 pm. This hour-long walking tour starts at 501 Main Street and focuses on cherished traditions: candle-in-every-window, the renowned Bethlehem Star, and the community Putz set among Bethlehem's exquisite Victorian and colonial architecture and two National Historic Landmarks: the 1741 Gemeinhaus and the Bethlehem Waterworks.
