Dutch Winterfest, Holland

Dutch Winterfest, Holland
This folk celebration takes place on 8th Street in Downtown Holland and is centered around Sinterklaas, the benevolent St. Nicholas. In true Dutch tradition, Sinterklaas arrives on his white horse surrounded by his
mischevious Zwarte Piet helpers. The procession proceeds to the 8th Street Market Place where he's "welkomed" by the Mayor.
