No holidays. Christmas is not a national holiday in our country, so there is no holiday at Christmas. And Christmas 2023 is Monday, December 25, which is a legal working day, so there is no holiday.
Christmas, also known as Christmas, translated as "** Mass", is a traditional Western holiday on December 25 every year. Mass is a liturgical service in the church.
Christmas is a religious festival that is celebrated as the birth of Jesus, hence the name "Christmas".
Most Catholic churches will first hold Midnight Mass on Christmas Eve, December 25th, while some churches will celebrate Christmas Day on December 25th** Another branch of the Orthodox Church, celebrates Christmas on January 7 every year.
Christmas is also a public holiday in the Western world, as well as in many other parts of the world, such as Hong Kong, Macau, Malaysia and Singapore in Asia.
The Bible does not actually record the date of Jesus' birth, and Christmas is a posterity.
