  3. Romania is a country that follows many traditions and customs from ancient times till today. One of the best parts of these traditions is shown throughout the month of December.

  4. Celebrations start with the Saint Andrei day on 30th of November. It is continued with Saint Nicolae on 6th of December and Christmas on 25th. There are also very specific celebrations for the New Year on 31st of December.

  5. On December 5 the Christmas lights are turned on all over the streets. The same night, Saint Nicolae comes and gives children presents. • Children receive their gifts early in the morning of December 6 or late at night on December ; traditionally, the gifts are put in their laced up boots.Children are usually given sweets or books; if they have been naughty they get wooden sticks.On December 20, Saint Ignatius day, Romanians start last preparations for Christmas. On this date they cut pigs for the Christmas Eve dinner.
