Beautiful Christmas Lights in Upper Sandusky, Ohio
When we first drive in to the display we see these beautiful Christmas lights.
This is a festive way to decorate homes, streets, and trees during the holiday season. They create a cheerful and colorful atmosphere that brightens up the dark winter nights. Some people like to use simple white lights, while others prefer multicolored ones. Some even create elaborate displays with synchronized music and animations.
History of Christmas lights
This is a long history that dates back to the 17th century, when people used candles to light up their Christmas trees. The first electric Christmas lights were invented by Edward Johnson, an associate of Thomas Edison, in 1882. Since then, Christmas lights have become more popular and varied, with different shapes, sizes, and effects. Some of the most famous Christmas light displays are found in Rockefeller Center in New York City, Trafalgar Square in London, and the Eiffel Tower in Paris. Christmas lighting is a beautiful way to celebrate the joy and wonder of the season. It’s magic.
The intense Christmas lights get your attention immediately. We shot stills as we drove through the display.
