how do spain celebrate christmas

In Spain, Christmas is celebrated in a unique and festive way, with many traditions and customs that are different from other countries. For example, Spanish families usually celebrate Christmas Eve (Nochebuena) with a special dinner, called a "nochebuena", which includes several dishes, such as roasted lamb, seafood paella, and a variety of desserts. Children also receive gifts on Christmas Eve, and they may wake up to find that their presents have been placed under the Christmas tree during the night. Additionally, Spanish families often attend Midnight Mass, or "Misa de Gallo", on Christmas Eve.
