Traditional Christmas cribs

  1. The first photo is really interesting, especially the food - I've never seen that before in a crib. Is it a special tradition?

  2. Yes. What we see in all pictures are two different tradition in Madeira Christmas. The first one is one, and people put some food, like oranges, apples, and others things.
    The second one is a recreation of some places of the island. Those photos are from a big "presépio", that was build downtown. But we do that, smaller, in our houses.
