A 24-meter Christmas tree weighing 12 tons was installed in the center of Manhattan
The main Christmas tree was brought to New York. It was reported by CNN.
It took two days to deliver a 24-meter spruce weighing 12 tons. A truck with a tree was accompanied by police vehicles. This is the first time a tree has been shipped from Maryland. The spruce was installed on a square near Rockefeller Center in downtown Manhattan.
In the near future, the tree will be dressed in garlands with more than 50 thousand multi-colored lamps, and a huge star weighing 408 kilograms, covered with 3 million Swarovski crystals, will be installed on its top … Traditionally, the lighting ceremony for New York's Christmas symbol will take place on December 1.
In 2020, residents of the Welsh city of Connas Key in Flintshire criticized a spruce tree that local authorities installed near the local library. According to the British, the tree looks unhealthy due to darkened coniferous branches and a lack of ornaments. Netizens even suggested that the spruce was infected with the coronavirus.
