- What connection can there be between Christmas and China? At first glance, they seem like two worlds apart, but in reality they are much more connected than you might think.
From Santa Claus's workshops in Yiwu, the Chinese city where two-thirds of the world's Christmas decorations are produced, to the camel caravans that brought Christianity to China in the 7th century, to the modern "foreigners' winter solstice," the way the Chinese called Christmas in the 19th century.
We will discover how this holiday has been reinterpreted over time, going from a religious tradition to a commercial phenomenon, to becoming a curious fusion of East and West!
