12. Sousse attacks.

On 26 June 2015, an Islamist mass shooting attack occurred at the tourist resort at Port El Kantaoui, about 10 kilometres north of the city of Sousse, Tunisia. Thirty-eight people/tourists, thirty of whom were British, were killed when an armed gunman attacked the hotels. It was the deadliest non-state attack in the history of modern Tunisia, with more fatalities than the twenty-two killed in the Bardo National Museum attack three months before.

22. The world's biggest snowman was 113 feet tall and was built in Maine.

21. Christmas lights were invented in 1882 by Edward Johnson.

20. We frequently abbreviate Christmas as X-mas because of ancient tradition. X is the Greek letter “chi” which is an abbreviation for the word “Christ” in Greek.

19. Despite having been at war with one another for five months, British and German troops in Ypres managed to arrange an unofficial ceasefire on Christmas Day, 1914. With no shots having been fired on Christmas morning, soldiers ventured out of their trenches into no-man’s land to recover their fallen comrades. A football was kicked out from a British trench, and so began perhaps the most famous football match of all time, altering the very course of world history, if only for a few hours, they decorated their shelters, and exchanged gifts.

18. There is a village in Peru where people settle the previous year's grudges by fist fighting. They then start the new year off on a clean slate.

17. World's Most Expensive Christmas Tree (United Arab Emirates).


Emirates Palace Hotel in Abu Dhabi unveiled what is thought to be the world's most expensive Christmas tree, valued at more than $11 million. The 40-foot faux evergreen, located in the gold leaf-bedecked rotunda of the hotel, is decorated with silver and gold bows, ball-shaped ornaments and small white lights.vWhat makes the tree highly valued are its jewelry decorations. The tree has a total of 181 diamonds, emeralds, pearls, sapphires and other precious stones. The bracelets, necklaces and watches which adorn the world's most expensive Christmas tree are provided by the Style Gallery.Hans Olbertz, general manager of the hotel, said, "The tree itself is about $10,000 and the jewelry has a value of over $11.4 million.

15. Christmas in the trenches, 1914.

13. From the Christmas party thrown by Adolf Hitler for his Generals. December 1941.

12. Queen Elizabeth II giving her first televised Christmas address, 1957.

11. Sgt Edward Good helping his buddy eat Christmas dinner, Dec 25, 1944 Belgium.

10. Jesus Christ, son of Mary, was born in a cave, not in a wooden stable. Caves were used to keep animals in because of the intense heat. A large church is now built over the cave, and people can go down inside the cave. The carpenters of Jesus' day were really stone cutters. Wood was not used as widely as it is today. So whenever you see a Christmas nativity scene with a wooden stable that's the "American" version, not the Biblical one.

5. In Norway on Christmas Eve, visitors should know that after the family's big dinner and the opening of presents, all the brooms in the house are hidden. The Norwegians long ago believed that witches and mischievous spirits came out on Christmas Eve and would steal their brooms for riding.

4. Two weeks before Christmas is a popular time for couples to break up.

According to data analyzed from Facebook posts, two weeks before Christmas is one of the two most popular times for couples to break up. However, Christmas Day is the least favorite day for breakups.

2. Though Santa Claus has worn blue and white and green in the past, his traditional red suit came from a 1930s ad by Coca Cola.

1. Christmas supposedly marks the birth of Jesus Christ on December 25. But there is no mention of December 25 in the Bible and most historians actually believe he was born in the spring.

We all love Christmas, but how much do any of us actually know about why Christmas is the way it is?

Christmas is the most beautiful holiday of the year. In fact, the entire month of December has a particular charm, meaning the end of one year, but also the start of another. Many people love this month due to the decorations that can be seen, as well as all around the cities(most especially the snowy cities). Most people enjoy decorating their homes, shops, offices, streets and seeing the Christmas spirit in everything, including decorations, clothing and accessories. Here we have some beautiful Christmas images, decoration from around the, and some facts we probably dont know about Christmas.


A little way of saying "Merry Xmas" to my Friends, Bros and Sis here. Wish you guys many more celebrations.
