English Traditions

Every country has its own traditions. In England, traditions are a very important part of people’s lives. English people are proud of their traditions and have kept them for many years. On Sundays, theaters and shops are closed. People do not get letters or newspapers, and only a few buses and trams run in the streets of London.

In English homes, the fireplace is often the most important place in the room. For many months of the year, people like to sit around the fire in the evening. Above the fireplace, there is usually a shelf with flowers, a clock, and family photos.
