Yes, its that time of the year again where Christmas lights are all over the major thoroughfares of Makati Central Business District visible and adding delight to every passerby of this modern and evolving city. With this year's theme "Season of Sharing", get ready to be welcomed by amber-colored Christmas light, white ribbons, colorful rings and arches that depicts Filipino tradition of festivity.
After years of displaying a wonderful and futuristic spectacle on the avenues of Ayala, Paseo de Roxas and Makati, Makati City has brought the dim lights back through a display of amber-colored Christmas lights this year mounted on the trees around the three avenues.
Though amber in color, Mel Ignacio, Assistant Vice President of Ayala Land, said that these lights are still LED lights, which are still safe for the trees they hanging on to. She also added that this year, Makati's Christmas celebration will be going beyond the spectacle and pleasure derived from streets all aglow. The city that makes it all happen is also a city with a heart.
It is the most wonderful time of the year again, and as part of their most joyous and heart-warming celebration, Makati City in cooperation with Ayala Land lighted up the three main avenues of Makati Central Business District for Yuletide 2010!
I was there when the switching on ceremony happened, and I together with thousands of spectators from different walks of life got the first glimpse of the wonderfully adorned avenues of Ayala, Makati and Paseo de Roxas.
