Christmas decorations include: Christmas stocking, which were originally a pair of large red socks, regardless of size. Because Christmas stocking are used to hold gifts, they are children’s favorite things. At night, they will hang their socks beside the bed, waiting for the next morning to receive gifts; Christmas hat is a red hat. It is said that in addition to sleeping soundly and a little warm at night, you will find some gifts from your beloved in the hat the next day; Christmas tree, usually people bring an evergreen plant (such as a pine tree) into the house or place it outdoors before and after Christmas, decorate it with Christmas lights and colorful decorations, and place an angel or star at the top of the tree. The Christmas tree originated in Germany; Christmas rings are decorations hung at home during the Christmas season in Western countries, usually consisting of green branches or vines (pine needles, pine needles, etc.) and silver metal and gold bells paired with red ribbons to form the main color tone. The four colors of green, white, yellow, and red represent joy and festivity, and the words MERRY CHRISTMAS or X’mas are also written on them. The Christmas rings first appeared in Finland.
Christmas in Spain is traditionally a religious holiday centered around the story of the birth of Christ. For example, in the Bible story, it is mentioned that the three kings of the East found the newborn Jesus on January 6th, guided by the stars, and each prepared a gift for Jesus. Therefore, during Christmas in Spain, children did not receive gifts on December 25th, but on January 6th.
On the afternoon of the 6th, a festival parade will be held in the city, disguised as the Three Kings of the East, leading companions, camels, and various strange and peculiar characters through the streets and alleys of every city in Spain, delivering gifts and toys to children door-to-door.
The entire Christmas holiday in Spain lasts for a relatively long time, with gatherings and parades scattered throughout the streets and alleys. So, many times, what you feel is different from Europe and America is that Christmas in Spain is almost every day with activities, and this unrestrained nation is constantly welcoming the New Year with enthusiasm.
