ROME, ITALY - 9 DECEMBER 2016: A 19th century Roman nativity scene is seen here at the International Nativity Scene Museum, which gathers more than 3,000 nativity scene items from all over Italy and 10 countries, in the church of Saints Quirico and Giulitta in Rome, Italy, on December 9th 2016.

For at least two centuries, churches in Rome have attracted visitors by setting up elaborate Nativity scenes, often with moving parts, flying comets and running water, thus leading to a nativity scene tourism in the Italian capital.
