In Japan, Christmas trees start popping up everywhere right after Halloween. It might seem a bit early compared to predominantly Christian nations. Despite Christianity constituting less than 3% of the population in Japan, celebrating Christmas has been a longstanding tradition. As the days get colder here in Tokyo, it’s lovely to witness the town adorned with beautifully decorated trees and Christmas lights!
