In the south of India, especially in places with larger Christian populations, like Pondicherry and Kerala, candles and fairy lights glow in windows and on rooftops and banana and mango trees get festive makeovers with colourful ornaments. Churches hold Midnight Mass and are beautifully decorated with poinsettias and candles. Food, of course, is central to the celebrations, some places even serving up turkey and others feasts full of local flavours like delicious biryanis and curries. The weather is sublime too – December is one of the finest months to visit India, with warm temperatures, minimal rainfall, low humidity and plenty of sunshine.
