For the second year in a row in Indonesia, a shopping center has created the world's tallest replica Christmas tree, decorated with one million lights.
The chairman of the Indonesian World Record Museum has given an award to the Central Park shopping center in Jakarta on Saturday.
[Jaya Suprana, Indonesian World Record Museum]:
"Today’s record is very interesting. It’s a good idea as a marketing concept. In welcoming the Christmas season, Central Park creates the tallest Christmas tree in Indonesia. This will become history and a tourist attraction for visitors.”
The lighting of the 120-foot Christmas tree replica was enlivened by sparkling fireworks and snow effects that were scattered from the top of the tree.
The lofty replica is built of iron covered with plastic fir.
The star on the top is made of LED lights and a million colored LED lights highlighting the tree itself.
Central Park broke the record for the tallest Christmas tree last year but this year’s record-breaker reaches 120 feet.
[Jaya Suprana, Indonesian World Record Museum]:
"This record has actually broken last year’s record. I already talked with the management of Central Park, next year they may make one even taller."
The record was announced at the opening ceremony of the "Now Jakarta the Christmas City" event.
