What is the origin of Christmas?
Christmas is a religious festival. Because it is celebrated as the birth of Jesus, it is called 'Christmas'. Most Catholic churches will hold midnight mass on Christmas Eve on the 24th, which is in the early morning of December 25th, while some Christian churches will hold the Annunciation and then celebrate Christmas on December 25th; another major branch of Christianity, the Orthodox Church, celebrates Christmas on January 7th every year.
Regional highlights:
1. United Kingdom

The British pay the most attention to food at Christmas, and the food includes roast pork, turkey, Christmas pudding, Christmas mince pie and so on. Every family member received a present, including the servants, and all the presents were delivered on Christmas morning. Some Christmas carolers go door to door singing and spreading the good news. They will be invited into the house by the hosts, treated with tea and snacks, or given small gifts. 2. United States
Because the United States is a country made up of many ethnic groups, the way Americans celebrate Christmas is the most complicated, and immigrants from various countries still mostly follow the customs of their home countries. However, Americans still hang wreaths and other unique decorations outside their doors during Christmas time.
3. France
Most adults in France go to church to attend midnight mass on Christmas Eve. Afterwards, the family goes to the home of the oldest married brother or sister for a reunion meal. This gathering is for discussing important family matters, and if there is any discord among family members, all grudges will be resolved and everyone will be back to normal, so Christmas is a day of kindness in France.
Christmas Time:
As Chinese and Western cultures come into closer contact, some Western festivals have also spread to China, such as Christmas. Christmas is celebrated on December 25th every year, and Christmas in 2021 will also be celebrated on December 25th.
Christmas originated from the ancient Roman Saturnalia, which was held to celebrate the New Year. However, with the cultural invasion of Christianity, Christians incorporated Saturnalia into Christian festivals. Although this festival itself has nothing to do with the birth of Jesus Christ, it still became one of the most important festivals of Christianity and was slowly introduced to China. Christmas is held on December 25th every year, and Christmas in 2020 is also on December 25th.
