During the Christmas season in Italy, churches, squares and homes are decorated with presepi, meaning “mangers” in English, elaborate figurine setups depicting the birth of Jesus. In Italy, presepi take on a larger-than-life aspect and are most often realized with an adjoining village complete with fake grass, lighting, nature backdrops, running water and multiple figurines. In Naples, one of the country’s oldest cities, the tradition persists even greater.
