Celebrating Christmas in Fiadanana 2006
Christmas is an important holiday for many people in Madagascar, where
about half of the countrys population are Christians.
In Fiadanana
this holiday is a time for the entire village to come together to
play music, dance and celebrate. Having a tree for the first time, a
living mango tree in a pot was decorated and built the centerpiece of
the
2006 holiday celebration.
