La Befana In Rome - Italian Christmas Traditions By Walks Of Italy




La Befana in Rome - Italian Christmas Traditions by Walks of Italy
Many of the characteristics that dozens of countries associate with Santa Claus, belong to "La Befana" in Italy. She is at the heart of the Italian Christmas tradition, an old "witch" who brings stockings to children with gifts for the "nice" and coal for the "naughty." View the "Befana" through the eyes of our favorite little Roman, Beatrice, in this charming video.
Locations shot: Piazza Navona, Beatrice's Bedroom
