Christmas is the celebration of Christ Jesus's Birthday.
UK, as a Christ country treats this season extremely important. It is a season of giving, and definitely a season of pocket empty as well. Shopping mall has extended their operation hours, streets are flooded with crowds, and most importantly discounting taps are everywhere in the shop.
In Malaysia, we love Christmas too because it is a holiday, it is a fun gathering time, it is a hyper happening time, it is party time and etc. Shops open till midnight, transports service will extend till midnight.
In UK, shops will be closed on 25th. Transports will be stopped on 25th. The streets should be empty at night. It is a family gathering. It is definitely churches' christmas dinner or party. Houses display Xmas trees, parents prepare gifts for their children, thinking to have a family feast together, and also attending churches, worship Lord and etc.
Normally streets will become empty after 5pm. The only going place will be pubs, casinos or take away shops. The life is boring, not as hectic as Malaysia.
The photos was taken at around 7pm. The sky turns to dark as earlier as 5pm. I hate photography at night, because it is extremely challenging to handle it. But I think I m getting better controlling it.
The venue is Drake Circus, and its surroundings. It is just opposite my University.
Enjoy the photos.
Merry Christmas
