"Meet under the Fig Tree before Christmas" Top 5 Page for this destination Santa Monica Local Custom Tip by marinarena

Santa Monica Local Customs: 16 reviews and 11 photos

At the ridiculously posh Fairmont Miramar Hotel, there is an old (by Californian standards) Moreton fig tree on its grounds. To salute the 80 ft high natural beauty, the hotel get super holiday pretty and hosts an annual social gathering open to all. Some of the most grand holiday decoration is here, as well as some holiday treat to eat . Gingerbread houses will be on display and to purchase for charity.
