Some are modern, some classic, some ugly, and some very ugly — Christmas trees have sprung up in the streets and squares of major cities across the world.

In Vilnius, Lithuania, officials chose an avant-garde installation, while dazzling, classic designs were displayed in Moscow.

A bright star lit up the tree outside the UK's parliament, and at the royal residence of Windsor Castle, firs dripping in gold decorations were erected.
