Bauska decides to bring back a natural Christmas tree in its main square
Residents of Bauska have decided that a natural Christmas tree will again be put up in the town's Rātslaukums square after a break of several years. The change will only come in a year.
In Bauska, a town in the Zemgale region of Latvia, a decision about the Christmas tree has been made already, with less than two months to go before the holiday. Residents have decided that a natural Christmas tree will once again be installed in Rātslaukums, the town's central square.
A natural tree has not stood in the square for several years, so the decision marks a return to earlier practice after a longer break.
The change is expected only in a year. This means the square's festive decorations will stay as they have been recently this year, and the natural tree will appear next Christmas.
The source does not say how residents reached the decision, why a natural tree was not used in previous years, or what costs and arrangements are involved.
