History of December Solstice in Hungary and How to Celebrate/ Observe It

In Hungary, the December solstice occurs on December 21, when the sun is at its southernmost point in the sky and the day is shortest. At this time of year, the sun shines directly over the Tropic of Capricorn, and the North Pole is tilted 23.5 degrees away from the sun. In Hungary, the December solstice marks the beginning of winter. The days become shorter and the nights longer, as the sun’s path across the sky moves lower and lower in the sky each day. The weather becomes colder and snow may fall. The December solstice is a time to celebrate the coming of winter and the start of the Christmas season.
