Walk through a classic Christmas nativity scene before heading into a retro Coca-cola room. A red, white, and blue veteran room, an icy-looking Disney princess room, and 1950s Christmas (fitted with an aluminium tree, of course) are just some of the other themed rooms to look through. Parents and grandparents of every decade will be able to relive their childhood holiday memories.
