Best Answer

Christmas has been recently adopted as a celebration by China but it has imported from the West and is viewed in a different way to the Western tradition.

Although Santa Claus is part of the celebration, his story and relevance has not been passed down through generations as it has been in the West. It is unlikely that children in China are brought up believing in Santa Claus in the same way that Western children do. Nonetheless, it seems that Santa can be seen with his helpers in many shopping malls in the run up to December 25th across China.

In China, some children may be aware of the concept of Santa Claus through media, but he is not a traditional figure in Chinese culture like in Western countries. Many Chinese children celebrate the Chinese New Year with the tradition of receiving gifts from family members instead of from Santa Claus.

Santa Claus is, of course, real. Looking from a scientific standpoint, It is, in fact, possible to deliver presents to all children in the world.

Also consider the fact that when it is Christmas eve in China, when he is delivering gifts, it is December 23 in America, therefore splitting the few children in the East and West hemispheres up to TWO days.So, yes, there is a Santa Claus
