A Sea of Lights: Mana Davao

The Mana Davao or Mana Casa de Artes y Antiguas is one of the most anticipated, and a must-see spectacle in Davao City during the Yuletide season.

Bright colors, artistically crafted lights and glitters of the shop's facade draw thousands of Dabawenos and visitors alike to this spot in Lanang - even causing a traffic along the highway as people walking by, jeepney and taxi drivers and passengers  stop&look in awe at this enormous sea of dancing lights.

This year's theme went big displaying giant christmas trees with huge ornaments... Simply magical! Year after year, it is hard to believe how the event organizers can top this the next time.

Mana Casa de Artes y Antiguas opened in 1999 along J.P. Laurel, Bajada, and has a 3,850-square meter showroom of various arts, antiques and imported furniture mostly of hard wood sourced from Greece, China, Thailand, Vietnam, Myanmar, Korea, Pakistan, India, Indonesia as well as Turkey and some parts of Europe, as far as Central and South America aside Philippine artifacts.

Yes, this is real!
