Christmas is a common holiday of Christianity and most countries, not just belonging to one country.
Christmas, also known as Christmas Day, is translated as “Christ Mass”. It is a traditional Western festival, which is held on December 25 every year. Mass is a church service. Christmas is a religious festival, which is named “Christmas Day” because it is celebrated as the birthday of Jesus.
Most Catholic churches will first hold midnight mass on the Christmas Eve of the 24th, that is, the early morning of December 25, while some Christian churches will hold good news, and then celebrate Christmas on December 25; Another branch of Christianity, the Orthodox Church, celebrates Christmas on January 7 every year.
Christmas is also a public holiday in the western world and many other regions, such as Hong Kong, Macao, Malaysia and Singapore in Asia. In fact, the Bible does not record the date of Jesus’ birth, and Christmas is determined by later generations.
