According to tradition, it is customary to take down Christmas decorations on January 6th, also known as Epiphany. This day marks the end of the Christmas season and the start of the new year. It is also considered a day of reflection and contemplation, when people take time to reflect on the past year and look forward to the year ahead. Taking down Christmas decorations on this day is a symbolic way to close the door on the past and open the door to the future. However, some people choose to leave their decorations up longer, or even all year round, as a way of celebrating the Christmas spirit throughout the year.
