Santa Claus, Indiana, is one of the top 10 Quirkiest Places to Spend Christmas, according to VirtualTourist.com. Our unique town came in at #2 on the list!
An excerpt from the site reads, "Yes, there is a Santa Claus and it's in Indiana. St. Nick's namesake town plays it to the hilt with a "Santa's Candy Castle" and twenty-two foot high statue of the man himself. Parents who are wondering where to send those letters to Santa can rejoice; the town post office anticipates the deluge each year and even has a special post mark to commemorate the holiday."
VirtualTourist.com is one of the largest online travel research sites and travel communities in the world. This list is based on expert insight and feedback from travelers on the website. Other "quirky" places include the Gingerbread Factory in Leavenworth, Washington; Winterfest in Solvang, California; and Candy Cane Lane in Ravenna, Washington.
Santa Claus, Indiana, is home to the world's first theme park, Holiday World & Splashin Safari, the world famous Santa Claus Post Office, the Santa Claus Museum and Santa's Candy Castle.
Happy Holidays from the Spencer County Visitors Bureau!
