I am not typically focused during my travels on picking a particular item from every place I go. (OK, maybe a beer glass but I am not consistent with that one…) But if an item really catches my eye in a certain category, I do buy it. Nativity scenes (“pesebres” in Spanish) is one of those categories. I especially like the ones from Andean countries which you will see below. Here are my favorite ones with special emphasis on one of them.

Only exception in the bunch: this was a gift I was given, source unknown

From Poland

From Peru

From Chile

Now to a series of pictures from a nativity scene from Panama.
