Christmas tradition
First, decorate the Christmas tree.
This tradition refers to decorating pine trees with colored lights, gold foils, garlands, decorations and sweets. Nowadays, the Christmas tree is also an indispensable part of celebrating festivals.
Second, light Christmas candles.
This tradition means that people will put a lighted candle outside the house during Christmas. Even in the darkest room, candles can bring light and symbolize hope. In the early years, when Christians were persecuted, they were forbidden to preach and pray. Therefore, Christians put candles outside the house, suggesting that they are still praying silently in their hearts.
Third, bake Christmas cake.
This British tradition was handed down centuries ago. People used to drink sour plum porridge on Christmas Eve. Over time, people will also enjoy candied fruit, honey and spicy food, and then Christmas cake will replace plum porridge. Christmas cake is baked with eggs, butter, desserts and fruits. Nowadays, Christmas cake has become an indispensable part of the Christmas menu.
