Drop By Or Drive Through: Places With Magical Christmas Light Displays

In case you missed it, the kids need to miss out on the mall hopping this Christmas because of COVD-19. All 17 mayors of Metro Manila have said kids will not be allowed in malls based on medical opinion. 

The Philippine Pediatric Society (PPS) and the Philippine Infectious Disease Society of the Philippines (PIDSP) strongly recommended that kids remain home "to minimize the risk of getting infected and lower viral transmission."

“The risk of acquiring COVID-19 both by children and other household members far outweigh the benefits of bringing children to shopping malls to celebrate the holiday season.”

So now that traditional family photo in front of a giant Christmas tree isn't happening, what can you do that doesn't involve another virtual activity? We recommend dropping or driving through these Christmas light displays in Metro Manila.

Some options allow you to get out of the car. (Please abide by health protocols wherever you go and observe traffic rules.)
