Charleston Christmas Lights Brighten the Night and the Season

The annual Christmas Tree lighting ceremony took place in Marion Square tonight to the delight of children of all ages.






Countless Christmas trees of all shapes and descriptions shone in the night at Marion Square.








Christmas trees decorated by children from many of the Charleston area schools lined the paths in the park.

The glow from the Christmas lights can be seen all the way to the North Pole and beyond.



A walk into the "Christmas Tree of Lights" was a popular spot for picture taking and "twirling".



The effect of being surrounded by hundreds of bright Christmas lights is not to be missed.





Spinning in circles inside the lights was a dizzying delight for many visitors under the tree tonight.



It's a great start to the Christmas Season in Charleston for young and old..
Merry Christmas!
