  I grew up in a town near Gramado, and I do not remember ever being disappointed during any of the many many trips I took to this beautiful town. Every year, during Christmas, Gramado holds a huge lights festival, with shows, concerts, and the most beautiful Christmas decorations any city could ever put together. Moreover, be it day or night, seeing Gramado during Christmas is a treat. In the evening, of course, the lights come on, and the spectacle is breath-taking. During the day, the summer flowers are in full bloom showing off their bright and vibrant tropical colors, for Christmas in Brazil is during summer, not the middle of winter, which most are accustomed to. Christmas isn't a time to bundle up and sit by the fire, it's a time to bring out the t-shirts and shorts to celebrate summer.
  
  Every year there is something different, something prettier, and something even more unique. The best part, in my opinion, is that the decorations are in place by the end of November, and remain until January 2, so there are plenty of opportunities for everyone to enjoy them. Even though it is Summer in Brazil during Christmas, the temperatures in Gramado are still cooler than in the rest of the country and by cooler I mean high 70's and low 80's.
  
  During Winter, Gramado is the hottest (figuratively hot, of course) spot in the country. Everyone wants to go to Gramado in July. The city is pulsing with live music, festivals, great food, and the Festival de Cinema de Gramado, which is South America's biggest Movie Festival and Awards Ceremony, by the way. The awards given out are called "kikitos", a statue of a smiling sun created by Elizabeth Rosenfeld and the cinema festival has been a yearly event since 1973. For the young and wild, Ibiza club opens its doors every winter season in Gramado, offering a 1st class clubbing experience in the heart of Brazil's most desired winter destination. Arts and crafts are also part of Gramado's many markets and colonial homemade goods, like fresh brick oven bread, hand-crafted jams, cookies, and premium chocolates.
  
  Oh, don't even get me started with Gramado's chocolate. There are at least four different factories of traditionally hand-crafted chocolates in town. They all have their boutique shops in downtown Gramado, for everyone to stop by and enjoy. The hot chocolate, as I said, is the best I've ever had. Every time I visit Brazil, I make sure I stop by this beautiful town, spending at least one day just window shopping and enjoying the scenery and Christmas decorations. I go to my favorite spots, eat my favorite treats, and enjoy, even if for only a few hours, the always magical atmosphere of Gramado. Whenever I have a few extra days, I also try and visit the wine country, which consists of several towns near Gramado where the Italians primarily settled. It's a truly Italian experience, with hills of grapes, Italian restaurants and buildings whose architecture is distinctly Italy.
  To get to Gramado, it is best to fly into Porto Alegre first and then seek out either tourist buses heading to the Gramado mountains, or pick up a taxi with a couple of friends and share the ride up there. hoteis gramado, hoteis gramado, hoteis gramado
