WE GET plenty of visual reminders that IT IS indeed the yuletide season – the buzz and rush on the roads, the big red bows in department store windows, and the bright decor all over restaurants. Despite the pandemic still being around, several locations are decked out in holiday cheer this year in an effort to recapture the spirit of Christmas.

Halogen lamps emphasize details of the Gothic-Renaissance Molo church, also known as St. Anne Parish. Beyond the church’s spires, the lights also illuminate the Ilonggo’s rich culture. AJ PALCULLO/PN
