From December 18 to 17 January Moscow hosts the first "Christmas lights" international festival. Teams from Russia, Italy, France and Canada decorated the streets and squares

There are lots of magnificent light objects in Moscow's city center now. The installation around the fountain on Teatralnaya Square looks like a fairy-tale temple. You can see the shiny symbol of the New Year, number 2016, on Tverskaya Square and a giant 17-meters high ball of light on Manezhnaya Square.
