Christmas, also known as Christmas, is translated as "Christian Mass", which originated from the Lunar New Year celebrations in ancient Rome and has nothing to do with Christianity. After Christianity became popular in the Roman Empire, the Holy See drifted this folk festival into the Christian system to celebrate the birth of Jesus.
But Christmas is not Jesus' birthday, because the Bible does not record the time when Jesus was born, nor does it mention such a festival, which is the result of Christianity absorbing ancient Roman mythology.
Chinese introduction to Christmas:
Christmas, also known as Christmas, is translated as "Christ Mass", which originated from Saturnalia, a festival in ancient Rome to welcome the New Year, and has nothing to do with Christianity. After Christianity prevailed in the Roman Empire, the Vatican drifted into the Christian system to celebrate the birth of Jesus.
But Christmas is not Jesus' birthday, because the Bible does not record the specific date of Jesus' birth, nor does it mention the existence of such a festival, which is the result of Christianity absorbing ancient Roman mythology.

Common food for Christmas:
First, the trunk cake
Buchedenoel is a famous French Christmas food.
Before the invention of electricity, the French used a good kind of wood as a Christmas present. The French are naturally romantic, even the origin of food is romantic: once upon a time, a young man who couldn't afford a Christmas present found a piece of wood in the forest and gave it to his lover, which not only won his heart, but also soared. Therefore, the trunk cake has also become a symbol of wishing good luck in the coming year.
Second, almond pudding
When Christmas dinner begins, you must eat an almond pudding first, and then you can start eating something else. If anyone can eat the only intact almond, he will be the luckiest person in the coming year. Usually, adults will put this almond in the youngest child's bowl to make them happy.
Third, gingerbread.
The most famous Christmas food in Germany is gingerbread, which is a small spot between cakes and biscuits. Traditional gingerbread is made of honey and pepper, which is sweet, spicy and pungent. The improved gingerbread sprinkled with icing is not only rich in taste, but also quite pleasing in appearance.
Fourth, the beach banquet.
When people living in the northern hemisphere celebrate Christmas in the howling cold wind, it is midsummer in Australia in the southern hemisphere. Australia's passionate "Midsummer Christmas" not only celebrates tropical customs, but also incorporates the classic elements of traditional European Christmas. Although people are exposed to the outdoor scorching sun, the shop windows are carefully decorated with winter snow scenes: a Christmas tree covered with snowflakes and Santa Claus wearing a red cotton-padded jacket.
