   Christmas in Oaxaca is a magical time for all ages, with candlelit holiday parades and colorful street festivals. Highlighting the season is the spectacular Night of the Radishes, a festival dating back to 1897. Self-taught Oaxacan artists are judged for their ability to carve religious, political and animal figures from giant radishes.
