A tradition entering its 30th year, the Victorian Christmas Stroll at the Henry B. Plant Museum -- the former Tampa Bay Hotel -- allows visitors to explore 14 exhibit rooms, each decorated with trees uniquely trimmed in 19th-century themes and antique accessories. Some trees this year will be decorated with tea cups, a theme of the 1893 Chicago World's Fair, bells, antique toys, and aromatic cigars.
Complimentary spiced cider and cookies are served on the veranda daily. In addition, carolers perform each evening in front of the hallway's 15-foot tree -- and visitors are welcome to sing along.
Proceeds benefit the museum's restoration and preservation projects, as well as educational programs.
