Did you know that the Miracle on 34th Street is more than a Christmas movie?

It's a real place in Baltimore's quirky Hampden neighborhood, which is great for visiting year-round...

...especially during the holiday season.

This block of rowhomes on W 34th Street becomes decked out in lights, figurines, and more.

The tradition started decades ago when a man named Bob Hosier decorated his home in holiday decor and the neighbors soon followed suit.

The rowhomes are even connected by strands of lights, making for a magical canopy while you're exploring the area.

The display is a little different each year and you never know what you'll see. From classic Baltimore icons...

...to hubcap Christmas trees, there's truly no other display quite like it.

How's this for a manger scene?
