France: In Serres in central France, heavy snow falls a few days before and after Christmas every year, creating a refreshing feeling with the white snow. In the eyes of Westerners, a white Christmas is a good omen. In France, the manger is the most distinctive Christmas symbol because according to legend, Jesus was born next to a manger. After singing Christmas songs praising Jesus, people must drink heartily. Champagne and brandy are traditional French Christmas wines.
