They don't celebrated x-mas in China, they have trees and all that because it makes the place look nice, but very one still works on x-mas day. There big event is the Chinese new year (Spring festival) which is worked out from the lunar year. Its like new years eve, x-mas etc etc all rolled into one.

The holiday is still December 25th, but since most people aren't Christian, it's not a big holiday. Kids sometimes get presents and know about Santa. There are Christmas decorations up, but it's a day just like any other day.

Not to many people in China celebrate Christmas. Only one percent of the chinese celebrate christmas but they do it on December 25th just like the rest of us.

Mr Hex Vision is right. China doesn't celebrate Christmas. In fact, the Communist government in China ban the celebration of Christmas, since Christmas represents Judeo-Christian imperialism that is led by foreign power. China has a long history of resenting foreign rule, just like Korea, Vietnam, Malaysia, India, Thailand, Indonesia, and Brunei, so the people of China have hate against foreigners, particularly Christians. If you try to encourage the people to celebrate Christmas in China, you will be executed by Communist authority sooner or later. The authority wants to makes sure the holidays are strictly in line with Communist doctrine. Remember the quote from Marx, "Religion is the opiate of the people."

Dec 25. But you'll only find celebrations and other Christmas-stuff going on in the bigger cities. The smaller cities and villages do not celebrate Christmas because it's more a "foreigner" holiday. Chinese, however, will spend more effort on the dinner on Dec 23, the celebration of "the first day of winter". According to my mom, this dinner rivals that of the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.

it's 25th of December but it's not a big holiday here... to be fair the 1st of January neither... the only winter holiday which matters here is Spring festival which is celebrated on 25th of January this year
