Fishermen Dressed as Santa Bring Gives Free Rides in Peru
The fishermen who dressed up as Santa Claus offered free rides on their traditional reed boats in Trujillo, Peru.
The Christmas spirit has taken a creative turn as local fishermen decided to spread cheer in their own unique way.
Instead of preparing gifts or decorating storefronts, they dressed up as Santa Claus and offered free rides on their traditional reed boats. Wearing bright red suits and fluffy white beards, these fishermen paddled across the water, giving visitors a charming holiday experience.
Families and tourists happily lined up for the chance to hop on the simple yet beautiful reed boats. The calm waves, the warm breeze, and the sight of Santa rowing made the moment feel magical.
For many passengers, it was a refreshing way to enjoy the season, far from the usual busy malls and crowded streets. The fishermen, on the other hand, enjoyed seeing people smile as they shared a piece of their culture while celebrating Christmas.
Meanwhile, in Cochabamba, Bolivia, the holiday spirit was on a much grander scale. A massive 42-meter Christmas tree lit up the area near the famous Cristo de la Concordia statue. The tree was decorated with around ten million Christmas lights, creating a dazzling spectacle that could be seen from afar.
Adding to the excitement, the towering statue itself became part of the show. Families gathered around, children pointed in awe, and everyone felt the warmth of the season despite the cool night air.
The setup turned the whole area into a festive destination where people could take photos, enjoy the decorations, and spend time with loved ones.
