多么可爱的树枝啊！ How lovely are your branches

平安夜

在这个平安夜，世界各地的城镇都沉浸在一种神奇的魔力中。商店关着门，街道空无一人，人们与朋友及家人欢聚一堂，互相慰藉。把礼物装进圣诞袜、举办派对或是播放节日音乐，每个人都有自己的平安夜传统活动。今天的照片上展示的是爱沙尼亚塔尔图市政厅广场一年一度的庆祝活动，广场上灯火辉煌，圣诞树点缀其间。塔尔图的圣诞集市洋溢着欢乐的气氛，有雪橇、户外火炉和木质动物旋转木马。此外，集市上还有熏肉、热饮和酥脆的姜饼。无论你是选择观看一部经典的节日电影，还是选择在十二点钟声敲响时惬意地喝上一杯热可可，在这个宁静的夜晚都能感受到浓浓的圣诞气氛。

Christmas Eve

There's a certain magic in knowing that, around the world, shops are closing, streets are emptying, and friends and families are gathering to celebrate Christmas Eve. We each have our own traditions, from filling stockings to hosting parties and playing festive music. Today's twilight homepage shows the gleaming lights and Christmas trees of Town Hall Square in Tartu, Estonia's second-largest city. Tartu's Christmas fair has a merry atmosphere, featuring sleigh rides, fire kettles, and wooden animal carousels, while serving up smoked meats, hot drinks, and gingerbread. Whether you're partying or cozying up with a cup of hot cocoa, embrace the Christmas spirit on this peaceful night—and don't forget the milk and cookies!
