What are some Christmas towns in New Jersey?
New Jersey may not be your first thought when you think about the typical winter wonderland. But, that's not to say we don't deck the halls with the best of them in The Garden State. Here are a few Christmas towns in New Jersey that bring the holiday cheer each year:
- Haddonfield, NJ: One of the most complete dinosaur skeletons was found in Haddonfield in 1858. But the size of that historic event pales in comparison to how big this town gets dressed up for Christmas. Grab a candle and join the town for a night of candlelight shopping on King's Highway - the town's Main Street. Even better, this isn't a one-time event - you can go any weekend from late November until just before Christmas. There are plenty of quaint shops and cafes to enjoy during your candlelight visit. And don't forget to go for a carriage ride or stop and sway to some live music along the way.
- Cape May, NJ: At the very southern tip of a peninsula in the Delaware Bay you'll find a magical beach-side community that gets pretty festive during the winter holidays. When the moon comes out and the stars start to twinkle, the lights come on and the Christmas spirit starts to flow. Imagine grand Victorian mansions decked out in thousands of lights with wreaths and trees aglow. You won't want to miss the official tree lighting ceremony or the holiday parade either.
- Woodstown, NJ: Another candlelight tour can be found in the charming town of Woodstown. It is hosted by the Pilesgrove-Woodstown Historical Society, and it will treat you to a tour of its many historic homes and businesses in the downtown area. There is even a live nativity scene performed by the Saint Luke's Episcopal Church. You'll also look forward to seeing Santa and Mrs. Claus who roll into town on the Woodstown Central Railroad - the reindeer need a break now and then.
