Every year in Medellín the city is decorated with elaborate and creative light displays for Christmas. The lights are mainly along the river and the main Avenida La Playa, but also in the botanical gardens and many of the neighbourhood parks. This year the theme is the ecosystems of Antioquia. Usually the lights are turned on in early December, but I was lucky to see them for a few hours this week as they were illuminated specially for a lighting conference.
