Ecuador
Cuenca loves children, so no surprise that there’s a whole celebration dedicated to them. It’s an unbearably cute and very long procession of teeny tots in fancy dress that takes place every Christmas Eve from 10 until they run out of children (quite a bit later). Unmissable photo opportunity, but do be careful of your possessions and keep your camera in your hand or round your neck. Then feel free to simper to your heart’s content.
