00:30the first two branches of this
00:32magnificent Christmas tree in Araneta City
00:34marks the start of Christmas
00:36in the Philippines.
00:38It's said to be the longest celebration
00:40of Christmas in the world.
00:42Aside from the Christmas tree,
00:44Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus
00:46also started their romance.
00:48There's also a Christmas mascot
00:50that greets the worshippers.
00:52What's the first thing that
00:54you think of when you see
00:56Christmas decorations?
00:58It's still joyful.
01:00It's a joyous occasion.
01:02And it always reminds us of family
01:04living together.
