Christmas pictures of China
Information on China
Chinese New Year is the Chinese version of Christmas in China, but many Chinese get in the holiday spirit
at Christmas in China. Christmas is not an official holiday in China, so most offices, schools and shops
remain open. All the trappings of a Western Christmas can be found in China, Hong Kong, Macau and
Taiwan.
In Hong Kong, the figure who visits children is known as Lan Khoong or Dun Che Lao Ren.
There are church services given in Chinese as well as English. Children send Christmas
cards depicting the Holy Family in a Chinese setting. Public areas are decorated with
Nativities, poinsettias, streamers, and paper chains.

land area with 9.64 million square kilometers. A 2007
population estimate held that China is home to 1.327 billion
people, more than any other nation in the world. The

improving living standards. China’s major cities include
Beijing (the capital), Shanghai, Tianjin, Chongqing,
Guangzhou, Shenyang, Qingdao, Wuhan and Chengdu.
