Ranking #15 was Andalusia, Alabama

Country Living said, “It doesn't get too cold in Andalusia, but that doesn't stop the town from turning into a winter wonderland. Every weekend in December, residents flock to Candyland, a kid-friendly event where children of all ages can ice-skate, visit the different holiday cottages, and meet Santa. The best part? Admission is free!”

According to the City of Andalusia, in honor of the 10th-year celebration, they acquired a towering Christmas tree that stands at 50 feet tall and has a base circumference 20 feet wider than its predecessor.

Additionally, they have incorporated new photo backgrounds and introduced C*A*N*D*Y*L*A*N*D signage, reminiscent of the iconic Hollywood sign. Visitors can now enjoy a larger cocoa ball pit and witness more snow than ever before.
