Orion Mall in Yeshwantpur is going all out for Christmas this year again, with Santa, snowmen and glitter giant bells at Wonderland Of Joy, their festive event. Even their lakeside is done up in dreamy fairy lights. Hello, Instagram!

What Makes It Awesome

If like us, you couldn’t make it to London’s awesome Winter Wonderland, just set GPS to North Bangalore, and hit up Orion Mall.  They have gone above and beyond on the decor aspect, and it’s like being in Santa’s home! The whole driveway, promenade and  trees, have been done up in fairy lights, and the lakeside area looks like the North Pole. Inside the mall, you're welcomed with a gorgeous Christmas tree, another tree but made up only of wrapped presents, a whole space dedicated just for kids (and kids at heart) to perch on Santa's lap and take photos. 

Going up the escalator is also a real treat as all the floors have been done up with glitter bells, red and gold baubles, miniature reindeer, Santa's soldiers and Santa cut outs too. All the pillars covered in lights, and corners made to look like they are life size mistletoe creepers. We love the Snowman’s corner which has a friend Snowman, mini red-and-green trees, festive candy cane and make-believe snow to satisfy those white Christmas dreams. Oh, and Santa’s castle guarded by reindeer, adorned by stars, surrounded trees and snow. It’s certainly worth a photo or two, even if you’re not a kid.

Pro-Tip

If you want to enjoy the decor without a mad crowd, make sure to go on a weekday morning or afternoon. Weekends are very busy, and you may not get the best atmosphere, or photos.
