Scandinavia paints the perfect picture of Christmas and spending Christmas here can be an incredible experience. Darkness, cold weather and traditions dating back to the old Viking days. What more could you ask for? But what exactly is a Scandinavian Christmas? While in many other countries gifts are opened on the morning of the 25th, a tradition that all Scandinavian countries share is the one of opening Christmas gifts early, on the evening of the 24th to be exact. The reason for this and for many other Scandinavian traditions can be found in the heritage from the Vikings.
