Christmas is not an official festival here, so we don't have a day off work and school. On the other hand, Christmas is one of the biggest festivals in some countries. I wonder how long your Christmas holiday last and you can have the break from work and school.

@id_peace I don't think so. If it is not allowed, at least no Christmas trees and decorations available. Actually we can still see these, but just we don't have an official holiday for it. It is reasonable for foreigner countries that they don't have a holiday for Chinese New Year.

Quite a few businesses here close up between Christmas and New Year so that they can take a break.

Well the celebration will be on the 24th & 25th and would last till Jan 1st and officially end on Jan 6th. But we start the preparations early on September where almost everybody is starting to decorate themselves at that point that is why we call it the "ber" months(Sept, Oct Nov & Dec) means that is the start of Christmas preparation.

Hopefully normal people can have a few days off work so that they can company with their children when they don't have to go to school.
