The residents of Gubbio are lucky; the Christmas tree decorated for them can be seen from anywhere in the city, because it is not a traditional tree, like ours, but a huge light installation located on Mount Ingino. It covers an area of 130,000 square meters. m. (that's almost three football fields), the height of the New Year's beauty is more than 650 m. When creating it, 300 green light bulbs are used, placed along the contour, and another 400 multi-colored light bulbs that serve as decorations. At the top there is a comet star made of 250 light bulbs, the area of which is 1,000 square meters. m. To connect all the light bulbs, about 7,500 m of cable of varying power is required. The scope of the Italians was appreciated, and in 1991 their brainchild was included in Guinness Book of Records.
An unusual tradition appeared in Gubbio in 1981, since then on the eve of the Day immaculate conception Illumination of the Virgin Mary is lit on December 7 every year. Throughout the month, the “Christmas tree” delights local residents and numerous tourists. By the way, famous politicians, actors, businessmen light the Christmas tree, and in 2011 this mission was carried out by Pope Benedict XVI, for this he clicked a virtual switch from his computer in the Vatican.

The height of the Christmas tree reaches 50 meters, which is several meters higher than the height of the Krasnoyarsk Christmas tree.

The Christmas tree installed in Grozny takes 2nd place in the world height ranking Christmas trees. First place was given to a floating Christmas tree in Rio De Janeiro, whose height is 84.5 meters. You can admire this beauty from all the embankments of the city.

So, where in the world are the most unusual spruce trees decorated for the New Year?
The largest Christmas tree, Mexico City
The winner in the category “Largest Christmas tree” has been the tree in Mexico City for several years now. The height of the festive tree is 110 meters 35 centimeters, which is as much as 24 centimeters more than the previous winner - a Christmas tree from Brazil. The Mexican spruce is listed in the Guinness Book of Records as the largest, but it is known not only for its size.
It takes 80 kilometers of garlands and more than a million light bulbs to decorate it. This miracle shines in the night like a small sun, and the design on it changes every year.
Largest floating Christmas tree, Rio de Janeiro
The most unsinkable Christmas tree has been installed for almost 20 years in Rio de Janeiro, on Lake Lagoa. A structure weighing more than 500 tons and 85 meters high is installed on four giant pontoons. About a hundred kilometers of garlands are placed on the huge floating spruce, and its decorations are made of three million lanterns. Their number is so great, and the work of lighting engineers is so precise, that the spruce can not only change patterns, but also show animated pictures.
By the way, the most amazing view of the Christmas tree opens from Mount Corcovado, from the foot of the statue of Christ the Savior.
Largest Christmas tree installation, Mount Ingino (Italy)
Who among us didn’t draw a Christmas tree as a child? But Italian perfectionists decided that their image of a spruce tree would become the largest in the world. For more than 20 years, on Mount Inzhino, volunteers have been unwinding 8.5 kilometers of garlands, creating their giant installation. The resulting spruce reaches 650 meters in height and 350 in width, and can be seen from a distance of 50 kilometers.
Don’t forget to decorate this creation: the lights flickering on the tree are 730 multi-colored spotlights. The only downside to such joy is the payment for electricity, because, presumably, a significant figure comes out of the Christmas tree in a month.
The most delicious Christmas tree
At Christmas, Paris becomes the capital of the world not only for all romantics, but also for those with a sweet tooth. After all, this is where a ten-meter-tall spruce tree is created from pure chocolate. Craftsmen work on its creation for several weeks, and not only confectioners, but also engineers take part in the work.
Four tons of material, by the way, do not remain unnecessary after the holiday. Already on the morning after Christmas, the tree begins to be sold at 5 € per 100 grams, and by New Year there is not a single piece left.
The most romantic Christmas tree, London
One of the festive venues in London became the ideal place for lovers. An interactive Christmas tree is installed on it, the garlands on which light up when kissed. According to tradition, you need to kiss under a mistletoe branch, but in London you are offered to hold it with your hands. After the couple starts kissing, the tree will light up and music will play.
By the way, this pleasure is not free and those who want to show their love to the whole city will have to pay one pound. However, all money collected goes to charities, so when kissing, you combine business with pleasure like never before.
The most eco-friendly Christmas tree, Tokyo
The staff of the Japanese Enoshima Aquarium unexpectedly approached the issue of decorating a small Christmas tree. Their tree was installed next to an aquarium containing electric eels. Metal plates were immersed in water and now, every time the eels generate a discharge, the garlands connected to these plates begin to glow.
Of course, a spruce decorated in this way does not shine all the time and certainly not according to schedule, but this does not in any way affect the joy of employees and visitors.
The most criticized Christmas tree, Berlin
Well, the Berlin Christmas tree installed in front of the Kaiser Wilhelm Church is considered the most sensational and most unattractive. Environmental activists created it from scrap metal and discarded things, so the tree turned out to be truly depressing.
Headless mannequins, torn toys and flames spewed out by the tree contrast so much with the holiday that the townspeople are horrified and demand that the tree be removed. Well, its authors hope that this exhibition will attract public attention to the problems of excess consumption and proper waste disposal.
Of course, there are also less titled, but no less charming, Christmas trees in the world. After all, the main thing in this holiday is not the height of the spruce tree or the splendor of its attire, but the magical mood that it gives. So if you can’t get to one of these trees for Christmas, just dress up yours and enjoy its beauty.
