The Christmas town of Hafnarfjörður, enjoys the beautiful traditions that are created in the run-up to Christmas. For many years, kindergartens in Hafnarfjörður have taken care of decorating the small Christmas trees that adorn the Christmas village on Thorsplan. Groups of pre-school children have made their way to the Christmas village this week with beautiful and environmentally friendly Christmas decorations, that they have prepared themselves. These decorations have become a beautiful tradition and have put a festive mark on the Christmas village, since the beginning.
The ornaments are made from recyclable materials and are of various kinds and the ingenuity is plentiful. We encourage Hafnafjörður residents and friends of Hafnarfjörður to take a tour of Thorsplan, look at the ornaments and even get ideas for decorations that can be crafted at home during Advent at little cost, but great joy.
