\"Christmas<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Christmas, in multicultural India, is celebrated with the same gusto as Diwali or Eid. Everyone is one big happy family with a Santa cap on every head and a smile on every face. The magic of Christmas isn\u2019t only limited to parties, merrymaking and presents from Santa. It all starts with mass at midnight on Christmas-eve to commemorate the birth of Christ, before getting the party started. Midnight mass is a spectacle unto itself as it is steeped in rich tradition and full of melodious, soulful music, thanks to the Christmas carols that accompany or precede midnight mass. Let\u2019s take a look at some of the best places to partake of this annual Christmas tradition in India<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\"Kolkata<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\"Basilica<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Midnight mass at this basilica in Mumbai is a star-studded affair, thanks to the myriad of Bollywood celebrities and famous personalities in attendance with hundreds of devotees. Located on a hill in the enclave of Bandra, it takes on a different life during Christmas thanks to its Catholic population. The drive to the basilica past rows and rows of decorated homes and buildings before reaching the church which overlooks the sea, is an apt precursor to the magic that happens at midnight when angelic singing brings in Christmas.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\"San<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Built on the resting place of St. Thomas the Apostle, who brought Christianity to India, this church retains an old-world vibe. With the original structure built way back in 1593 and later redesigned in Neo-Gothic style, favoured by British architects in the late 19th century. This church is one of the only three known churches in the world built over the tomb of an apostle of Jesus. Steeped in history and bathed in Christmas spirit, Christmas in Chennai has its own unique traditions and the festival is celebrated with typical Chennai<\/a> attitude and swagger, but not before celebrating the birth of Jesus with piety and prayer first at midnight mass.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

5. Every church in Goa<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\"Christmas<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

6. Cathedral Church of The Redemption, Delhi<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\"Cathedral<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

A stately remnant of the British Raj, the Cathedral Church of The Redemption is where the British viceroy would attend Christmas mass. Step back in time as you step onto these hallowed grounds with a church that looks like it belongs in a colonial-era period drama. Located due east of Parliament and Rashtrapati Bhavan, the atmosphere here is sombre and dignified. This does not mean it lacks warmth however, complete stranger at the start of mass become friendly acquaintances by the end of the service as wishes are exchanged over warm coffee and cake.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

8. Eglise De Notre Dame des Anges, Pondicherry<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\"Eglise<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The Eglise de Notre Dame des Anges or Church of Our Lady of the Angels is a throwback to Renaissance-era France, thanks to Pondicherry<\/a> being a French colony. The interiors are opulent and reminiscent of a French court with gilded ceilings and gold painted pillars. Midnight mass here is a trip back in time. Being close to the sea in tropical Pondicherry means this Christmas is a pleasant kiss of tropical warmth as opposed to a stereotypical snowy embrace of Christmas. During Christmas, Pondicherry\u2019s French past awakens. You can see it in the decorations that pop up all over Pondy and especially picturesque White Town, where the church is located. Another way to tell Christmas has come to Pondicherry is the smell of freshly baked cakes wafting from one of its many French-style bakeries and cafes.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

9. Christchurch, Shimla<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\"Christchurch,<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Home to the oldest pipe organ in the Indian subcontinent, built in 1899, Christchurch in Shimla<\/a> is many things. A direct throwback to the Raj with cobblestone streets, charming quaint buildings and Christchurch at the centre of town. It could also be the inspiration for many Christmas cards, should snow decide to grace the occasion. Midnight mass in Shimla is a magical experience for anyone who decides to give it a shot. The possibility of sharing Christmas wishes and cheer beside a roaring bonfire after mass ends is also a possibility if you are lucky enough to attend a Christmas party at someone\u2019s home.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

10. Church of St John in the Wilderness, Dharamshala<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\"Church<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Located in the midst of a deodar forest between Mcleodgunj and Forsyth Gunj, the Church of St John might as well be a tiny chapel in the Scottish Highlands or Scandinavian forest.
