Every country has its own customs and traditions. English people are
proud of their traditions and they keep them up.
It is difficult to speak about England without speaking about its
holidays. Christmas Day is among them.
All English people celebrate Christmas (or X-mas) on the 25th of
December.
Christmas! What kind of holiday is it? It is the yearly celebration
of the birth of Jesus Christ. It falls on December 25 by the Catholic Church
and on the 7th of January by the Orthodox Church. This holiday means the
beginning of the new year and the new life. English people celebrate this
holiday with the evergreen tree - Christmas tree. Children put a long sock,
called a Christmas stocking at the end of their beds and Santa Claus comes down
the chimney to bring them presents.
Christmas Day is the greatest holiday in England. It is interesting
to visit the shops before this holiday. There are a lot of nice Christmas cards
and presents there. English people like this holiday very much and prepare for
it beforehand. They buy presents for each other, try to send Christmas cards
for their relatives and friends.
It is interesting to visit London during this holiday. There is a
Christmas tree in Trafalgar Square. We can see many lights, toys and sweets all
over this tree. Everywhere you can see slogans "A Merry Christmas and a
Happy New Year".
The traditional English dinner on Christmas is turkey and pudding.
