Bethlehem, PA: Christmas City USA | Things to do during Christmas in Moravian District 2021 | Vlog

There are numerous reasons why Bethlehem, Pennsylvania is referred to as Christmas City USA. The name—alone—is a good reason why this city is so famous for its Christmas spirit!

December is the best time to visit Bethlehem! From shopping in the Historic Moravian District to carriage rides throughout downtown to European-inspired Christmas Huts on Main Street, there are tons of things to do here in order to get into the holiday spirit! We’ll give you a glimpse of all of these things and more in this vlog!

Settled by Moravians, a group of Protestants from the Czech-Republic, during the 1700s, Bethlehem has long-standing Christmas traditions that are still celebrated today. Moravian Stars are a staple in Bethlehem as well as Moravian Candles. We’ll showcase these traditions, and stop by the local Christmas Putz, which demonstrates the story of the birth of Jesus.

There’s so much history in this little town of Bethlehem, but we’ve tried to capture the Christmas feeling this town emanates as best as we could during this mini Christmas tour of this charming town in the Lehigh Valley.
