The streets are beautifully decorated and closed to traffic. The put a red carpet down the center of the street so you can feel like you are really going to the premier of a New Year. We had dinner at the House Hotel in the middle of the festivities, so we were off the street but we could watch all the action and there was a very nice fireworks display at 1200.
Happy New Year from Sophisticated-Travel
