This Montana Christmas Town Is Straight Out Of A Norman Rockwell Painting
Montana is a reputably picturesque state, especially during the holiday season when snow often blankets the landscape. But there is a quaint little town that is resplendent with charm during the holiday season, and it’s a must-visit. You’ll feel as though you’ve stepped right into a Norman Rockwell painting, and these photos confirm it: this is the most beautiful Montana Christmas town.
Nestled along the Yellowstone River in southwestern Montana lies the rustic little town of Livingston.
This town’s humble beginnings can be traced back 140 years to its early days as a farming and railroad hub. With just over 8,000 residents living in Livingston as of 2020, it still maintains its small-town rustic appeal, especially during the holidays.
The holiday lights in Livingston are something from a Christmas fairytale.
Every year, volunteers gather to string together thousands of beautiful lights in parks and neighborhoods around town.
Adorably festive touches can be found everywhere you look; from bedazzled trees to glimmering locomotives, you can almost feel the Christmas spirit in the air.
You’ll be captivated by the stillness in the crisp air and the smell of fires roasting from nearby chimneys as you make your way down holiday light-adorned streets such as this.
You’ll be hard-pressed to find a more perfect Christmas town in Montana than charming Livingston.
