It is said that on Christmas Day in 1620, a large number of immigrants from Britain arrived in Plymouth Mountain on the American continent. At that time, there were only turkeys in Shan Ye, so they grabbed turkeys as the main course of the festival.

Turkey is a specialty of America. Before Europeans came to America, it was domesticated by Indians. Turkey's name is Turkey, because Europeans think it looks like Turkish clothes, with black head and red body. Roast turkey is an American dish, which is essential for important festivals.

Turkey has been eaten for nearly 400 years. The "diner" in the "Christmas Dinner" and "Thanksgiving Dinner" symbolizing bumper harvest and reunion originally did not mean dinner, but should be eaten at noon, because Thanksgiving Day is the Thursday of the fourth week of 1 1 every year, which is very close to Christmas. Christmas is a day to thank Jesus for coming, so the turkey dinner symbolizing gratitude extends to Christmas.

Christmas is an important festival for Christians to commemorate the birth of Jesus. According to the Bible, Jesus was born in the Jewish town of Bethlehem. It is recorded in the book that the Virgin Mary was pregnant by the Holy Spirit. When she and her husband Yue Se returned to their hometown, all the hotels were full, so Mary was forced to give birth to Jesus in the manger. It is said that while Jesus was sleeping peacefully in the manger, three doctors in the Far East followed a bright star in the sky to find Jesus and worshipped him. Shepherds also heard the voice of angels in the wild sky and told them the good news of the birth of Jesus. In the Roman Empire, the commemoration of the birthday of the sun god was changed to1Christmas on February 25th. The custom of eating turkey at Christmas originated in America. It is said that in 1620, a large number of immigrants came to Plymouth Mountain in the United States from England. It happened to be Christmas, and everyone was ready to celebrate. Unfortunately, the local land is poor and the products are poor, but turkeys are all over Shan Ye, so turkeys have become the main course of their festivals.

This custom has been handed down from generation to generation, so turkey is indispensable for Christmas dinner now. The origin of Turkey:

American roast turkey and Beijing roast duck both originated from roasted geese in Europe or the Mediterranean. Turkey is a specialty of America. Before Europeans came to America, it was domesticated by Indians. Turkey's name is called "Turkey" in English because Europeans think it looks like Turkish clothing: it has a black head and a red body. After Europeans immigrated to the United States, they had the requirement to eat geese, so they ate turkeys. They found that turkeys were more delicious than geese, and there were many turkeys in North America, so roast turkeys became a big dish for Americans and also a big dish for Thanksgiving in the United States.

The Christmas tree is a symbol of Christmas. There are many theories about its origin, one of which can be traced back to16th century. By the way, Zong? One year, revolutionary Martin Luther walked through a wilderness on Christmas Eve and saw a pagoda-shaped oak tree. The starry night sky behind the tree made him unforgettable. So he went home, found a small pine and set it in a wooden bucket, cut it into stars with white paper and decorated it on the tree. His family and friends greatly appreciated it and followed suit. The custom of decorating Christmas trees began at that time. Nowadays, the Christmas tree has become an indispensable ornament for Christmas.
