Christmas in SM General Santos City

Indeed, Filipinos do have the longest celebration of Christmas since we hear normally Christmas cheers, songs, and our very own homes aren't far from the holiday spirit when we start having our Christmas tree and other decors.

And, Christmas isn't fun without the gifts we have for our loved ones. So, we avoid the rush as we make our gift checklist and rummage through malls for best buys.
