If you want to do Christmas up right, there are worse places you can go than a city named for Jolly Ole Saint Nick himself.

The Indiana town of Santa Claus has the world's only post office to bear the name of Santa Claus. Because of this popular name, the post office receives thousands of letters to Santa from all over the world each year. A group of volunteers known as "Santa's Elves" ensures each child receives a reply from Santa Claus.

Santa Claus, located in southwestern part of the state, is the home to numerous themed attractions including Santa's Candy Castle, Santa Claus Museum, Holiday World & Splashin' Safari and Frosty's Fun Center. The area is also home to Christmas-themed events running weekends through Dec. 20, including the Santa Claus Christmas Parade on Dec. 12.
