The annual lighting ceremony of the largest New Year tree in the world was held in the Italian city of Gubbio. The tree is a light installation on the southern slope of Mount Ingino, writes “Habar 24”.

The Christmas tree covers an area of three football fields and reaches a height of 900 meters. Lighting it requires more than 7,5 kilometers of cable.
