Christmas

Christmas date

On December 25 Christmas is celebrated and is both a worldwide cultural phenomenon and a sacred religious holiday. For two millennia, people all around the world have been observing it with practices and traditions that are both secular and religious in nature. Christmas day is celebrated by Christians as the anniversary of the birth of Jesus of Nazareth, a spiritual leader whose teachings form the basis of their religion and guide followers. Popular customs include decorating Christmas trees, exchanging gifts, attending church, sharing foods, and sharing meals with family and friends and, of course, waiting for the Santa Claus to arrive. 25th of December—Christmas Day—has been a federal holiday in the United States of America since 1870.
