Christmas is a major seasonable event in a year, but it does not have a religious significance in Japan, in general. Christmas is not a holiday.
Christmas cake is a typical food for Christmas eve. People give weigh to the Christmas eve more than Christmas day. Christmas illuminations have been shining everywhere since November, and it is creating western mood. But after 25th, it will suddenly change to Oshogatsu (New Year) decorations. It might be the season we can feel traditional Japanese atmosphere most.
