Christmas Trees in Paraguay: A Cherished Tradition

Yes. Christmas trees are a central part of holiday celebrations in Paraguay. Families typically set up artificial or fresh pine trees in early December, decorating them with lights, ornaments, and often traditional Paraguayan crafts (ñandutí lace, karanday palm decorations). The tree remains until January 6 (Día de Reyes). Nativity scenes (pesebres) are equally important, and midnight Mass (Misa de Gallo) on Christmas Eve is widely attended.
