The Festive Illuminations in Central London / 伦敦市中心璀璨的圣诞灯饰

Christmas shopping can be one of the most stressful times of the year. Though of course, it all proves worthwhile given the happiness it gives for the people we love so dearly in our lives. Hence, London's way to brighten up these darkened evenings running helterskelter around the city's capital is by their phenomenal aerial light shows. And yes, I'm referring to the famous "West End themed street lights".

Whilst lugging two bags full of presents draped over each arm, I had to make some pit-stops and take some snaps of that beautiful scenery above. Hope you enjoy this selection of my favourite and a glimpse into how this year's "Christmas London Light Show" looked.

(Piccadilly world-famous enormous electronic advertising billboard had been under refurbishment for a while. I immediately noticed how much clearer the display was. The best just got a whole lot better!)
