The Christmas tree is one of the main symbols of the year-end celebrations. But there was a time when they weren't just in one corner of the room with gifts. During the reign of Edward VII (1901 to 1910), people in the United Kingdom celebrated by dressing up the Christmas tree with all the traditional ornaments.
