The Christmas in China
In China the Christmas is comemorated in 25th
December and symbolizes the birth of Jesus. In
the Cristmas nigth, the people goes to a churche to pray. Its a
party where exists joy,
laughsand happiness. It had parts of theatre, dances and
christmas songs. The young men of
the kitchen brought great baked meat and they all ate, they
laugh and they drank hot of the
highest points and wines. Finished the supper, the narration of
histories start. The night of
Native was equal all the years. Always the same party, always
the same supper But all the
things as many repeated times, and histories as many heard
times, seemed each more
mysterious and more beautiful all over the years.
The Christian Chinese commemorate the Christmas decorating their
houses with colored paper
lanterns. Also the Christmas tree is called light tree',and it
is decorated with lanterns, flowers
and other ornaments made of paper. As the American children, the
Chinese children also hang

complicated there. Santa Claus is called Dun It dao Ren, that
means ' old Christmas'. In China
the great majority of the Chinese is not Christian. For the
population that doesnt celebrate de
christmas,this period is of commemoration of the Chinese New
Year that happens in a
changeable date in the end of January. During the party the
children receive new clothes and
many toys and have shows of firework. Pictures and paintings of
the members that have

The Christmas in INDIA
In India the population is, most of them Hindu and Muslim, so
christmas is not officially
celebrated. But in India there are also christians, that respect
this event, going to the church
and making tracitional meals for family, because this is one of
the most big events for the
christians. They make christmas by decorating boxes, but there
are nothing in the streets that
show that is christmas. The christmas in india is the banana or
the mangoes' tree, because of
the british influence in India, remains a tradition of giving
gifts.
Shub Naya Baras.Feliz natal
