The Belén Luminoso de Manarola is the world's largest illuminated nativity scene, installed each December by Mario Andreoli on the hill of Tres Cruces, north of the village. Comprising over 300 figures crafted from recycled materials and more than 15,000 light bulbs, it's visible from the sea. Officially recognised as a world record since 2007, this extraordinary display transforms the Cinque Terre landscape during the festive season.
