Christmas Fabric

Christmas (Christmas) is a celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ, usually celebrated on December 25 every year. The origin of the festival goes back to 336 AD, when the Roman Church began to celebrate the birth of Jesus on December 25th. Although the exact date of the birth of Jesus is not specified in the Bible, most Christians celebrate Christmas on this day.‌12
Christmas was originally meant to commemorate the birth of Jesus, so it is also known as Christmas. This festival gradually became an important tradition of the church after the middle of the 5th century, and spread among the East and West churches. Due to the different calendars used by different denominations, the specific dates and forms of celebration also vary.
During Christmas, many Christian churches hold special services called "Mass" (Mass). On this day, people would go to the church for religious services, exchange gifts, and decorate their homes with Holly, mistletoe, and Christmas trees. Traditional customs such as the Christmas tree and Santa Claus also add a strong festive atmosphere in the festival.
The spread of Christmas is not limited to Europe, its customs also spread to Asia, especially in the middle of the 19th century, Japan, Korea and other countries were influenced by Christmas culture. Now, Christmas has become a public holiday in the Western world and in many other regions, where people celebrate it by exchanging gifts and holding banquets.
