It is different to celebrate Christmas around the world.
In Brazil, Father Christmas is called Papai Noel. Many Christmas customs are similar to those in the USA
or the UK. For those who have enough money, a special Christmas meal will be chicken, turkey, ham, rice,
salad, pork and dried fruits, often with beer. Poorer people will just have chicken and rice.
In France, every family has a Christmas tree, sometimes decorated in the old way with red ribbons (绸带)
and real white candles. Trees in the garden are often decorated too, with lights on all night. The Christmas
meal is an important family gathering with good meat and the best wine.
Germans love to decorate their houses at Christmas. In the windows many houses will have colored
pictures of paper or plastic which look beautiful from the outside at night. Father Christmas brings presents
in the late  afternoon of Christmas Eve, after people have been to a church meeting. The presents are then
found under the Christmas tree. One person in the family will ring a bell and call everyone to come to the
room. On Christmas Day, fish or goose will be cooked.
In Sweden, the most important day is Christmas Eve. A special Christmas meal is eaten on Christmas
Eve-pork, herring (鲱鱼), and brown beans-and this is the time when families give presents to each other.
Many people attend a church meeting early on Christmas Day.
