离波士顿1个半小时车程的Springfield有个圣诞节灯饰主题公园，每年圣诞期间都举行圣诞灯饰展，至今已有23年了。一整条路摆放着650,000 盏灯，有各式各样的灯饰，如圣诞老人、恐龙等造型，开着车大约需要半小时的时间来欣赏，每年都有很多人远道前来观赏。开车赏灯饰，让你避开寒冷，又饱眼福。

今年的圣诞灯饰展从11/22/2017到1/1/2018，还没去过的朋友可别错过了，带上娃或女朋友去那里渡过一个难忘的圣诞节和新年吧！摄影爱好者可别错过了这样美丽的夜晚哦！期待你们的美照，欢迎投稿！

Inside Forest Park, tune to WELF 101.5 FM for musical accompaniment.

排队进入Forest Park 时记得收听电台101.5，让圣诞歌曲一路相伴。入口不远处的Santa’s Magical Forest是个小游乐园，那里有吃有玩还有圣诞老人合照。
