According to Travel and Leisure, Puerto Rico is the main option for America this Christmas 2014.

It’s the beautiful palms and mild climate in El Yunque that make this destination a great option to the usual winter landscapes of December; it’s not a bad idea to walk the streets of old spanish colonial styles any city in the Caribbean.

The peaceful colonial city and cultural center of the Bajío transforms itself every Christmas with parades and fireworks, their inns, live music and dance in El Jardin plaza. Don’t forget to try the typical punch with a “bite” of brandy, and don’t miss tasting their exquisite kings’ ring (rosca de reyes).

Its tropical climate with a couple of showers per week, and its incomparable beaches make Rio de Janeiro a tourist destination for Christmas. It is recommended to timely make hotel reservations, which get fully booked in December.

Lima, Peru

Lima, Peru, is also a popular South American destination for Christmas, as it is celebrated summer of the southern hemisphere, which rainy season begins in December.

The most beautiful Peruvian beaches are located in the north, and are perhaps the most beautiful beaches in the Pacific. Its nightlife in the outdoors is also very appealing. Don’t forget to try their famous ceviche in the district of Miraflores, which has many restaurants.

Santiago, Chile

Even in summer, the climate in Santiago lends warm days and cool nights. Santiago is just as popular as are other cities in South America, and one should not overlook the fact that the second half of December is high season.

You can also visit Valparaiso and other villages in the mountains, where you will find good accommodations at affordable prices. La Patagonia is a beautiful destination for this summery Christmas.

Where will you be speding Christmas this year?

    Lima is a terrible choice — a big congested city with a seemingly constantly oppressive heavy fog.
