Christmas Traditions in Different Countries
Christmas is a widely celebrated holiday around the world, but different countries have their own unique traditions and customs. In this article, we will explore some of the most interesting Christmas traditions from different countries.
In Spain, the Christmas season officially begins on December 8th with the Feast of the Immaculate Conception. One of the most exciting traditions in Spain is the "El Gordo" or "The Fat One" lottery, which takes place on December 22nd. This is the largest lottery in the world, with millions of euros in prizes. Another important tradition is the "Nochebuena" or "Good Night" dinner, which is a big family meal on Christmas Eve.
In Germany, Christmas markets are a beloved tradition. These markets, known as "Weihnachtsm?rkte," are held in many towns and cities across the country. They feature festive decorations, delicious food, and handmade crafts. Another popular German tradition is the Advent calendar, which counts down the days until Christmas with small treats or gifts.
In Mexico, the Christmas season is celebrated with a variety of colorful traditions. One of the most significant is the "Posadas," which reenacts Mary and Joseph's search for a place to stay in Bethlehem. Participants go from house to house, singing carols and asking for shelter. Another important tradition is the "Las Pi?atas," which are decorated clay or papier-maché figures filled with candies and toys. Children take turns hitting the pi?ata with a stick until it breaks and the treats are released.
In Sweden, Christmas Eve is the main day of celebration. Families gather to exchange gifts and enjoy a festive meal, which often includes dishes like pickled herring, ham, and sausages. One unique Swedish tradition is the "Julbock," or "Christmas Goat." This is a large straw goat that is often displayed in town squares during the holiday season. It is a symbol of Christmas and brings good luck.
These are just a few examples of the diverse Christmas traditions found around the world. Whether it's the Spanish lottery, the German Christmas markets, the Mexican posadas, or the Swedish Julbock, each country has its own special way of celebrating this joyous holiday.

Christmas is the most important festival in the western world. It falls on December 25th. When my mother and I stayed in America, we were invited by one of my mother‘s friends to have Christmas with an American family. We bought some presents for our American friends on our way to their house.
They had prepared different kinds of gifts for their family and guests when we got to their house, such as Christmas candles, cakes, cards, little toys, biscuits and so on. A Christmas tree was placed in the comer of the brilliant hall. How beautiful it was! We were impressed by these. We had a big meal. After dinner, they told us some interesting stories about Christmas. We learned that Christmas had something to do with God. We went to bed at midnight. Though we knew the Santa Claus was not true, we were still waiting for the Santa Claus with white beard to bring us presents.And we received many beautiful presents the next morning.
This Christmas was really unforgettable. Not only did I have a good time, but also I knew something about foreign culture.

Christmas Day falls on the twenty-fifth of December. It is a very happy day for many boys and girls. Before the term ends in some schools, the children act a nativity or “birth” play, showing how Jesus was born in a stable.
On the twenty-fourth of December, all children are very excited. Usually they are sent to bed early so that their parents can get the presents ready. The younger children think that Father Christmas will come down the chimney or fireplace, so they hang up a sock for him to put presents in. The greedy ones even hang up a pillow-case or a sack to try to get more presents. Later that night, father or mother will put presents in the sock, and leave others at the side of the bed.
On Christmas morning, the children wake up very early. Some even turn on the light at two o'clock, and most of them are awake by six o'clock, and the young ones play while the dinner is prepared. At about one o'clock in the afternoon, the Christmas dinner is brought in. The turkey or chicken is quickly eaten. Children search in their Christmas pudding for new coins which are hidden in it. The rest of the day is full of games and eating until the happiest of all Christmas holidays comes to an end.

Christmas is one of the most important celebrations of the year for the western countries. It falls on the twenty- fifth of December and has the same importance as Chinese New Year to people with English backgrounds. The celebration is for the birth of Jesus Christ, who is the son of God in Christianity. Now days Christmas is no longer only celebrated by the Christians, but by most people from all over the world.
On the twenty- fourth of December everyone gets excited for its the day before Christmas which is called Christmas Eve. The children are usually sent to bed early and are warned that "Santa Claus will only come and give you a present if you be good." The younger kids actually believe that Santa will come down the chimney on the sleigh thats pulled by his reindeers. Food like short bread and beer are prepared for Santa when he comes, however most times parents just eat them. Some children put socks and sacks up for the holding of the presents (that their parents put in).
Rise and shine on Christmas morning! The children are always the first ones to wake up, some even do at four. Present wrappers everywhere! They look into their presents with a big smile on their face and oh dear….I hope no ones disappointed. I feel sorry for anyone that got pink underwear. Children play while dinner is prepared by the adults. The Christmas dinner are usually eaten together by relatives. The tradition of Christmas pudding and roosters are usually eaten with deserts afterwards. The rest of the day is usually games and fun before the good days all come to an end.
I wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
