The Kings are still the favorites of Spanish kids, so the morning of the 6th of January is the most important moment of the year for them. We also decorate Christmas trees, but the Spanish tradition is the Belen , an old tradition of Italian origins which consists in making a miniature of the Palestinian village the night Jesus Christ was born and the adoration of the Three kings. Some of this miniatures are masterpieces, from the 19th or 18th century. We hope this little introduction to our Christmas traditions would be useful to you, Spanish Culture lover. Stay with us, because 1998 will not be only a joyful year for you, but a year with a lot of surprises in the Spanish Culture site.
