Yes, Christians believe Jesus was born in a stable. However,(if this is what you're asking) the reason there wasn't any room in the inn was not that it was Christmas,(remember Christianity didn't start until Jesus was 30), but that all the population were being counted and everyone had to go to their home towns.

It was because it was Succot or the Feast of Tabernacles in the fall not the spring. Many people were in Jerusalem and the surrounding towns of which Bethleham is, to celebrate this annual feast. They would have stayed in a succot (three sided temporary structures) in which many who came to the area would stay in. Because Mary was about to deliver they sought the refuge of an inn to be out of the elements. However there was no room. They laid him in a manger only because it was what was available for a bed. You really will not find the word stable in the whole story. Its a fabrication.
When you ignore the Old Testiment and Gods holy days you miss the culture of the Jewish people so that when you read the new testement you make large errors in disernment.
You also miss out on the spiritual meanings and the lessons of the biblical holy days.
The Holy days also lay out the plan of salvation if you care to look. Its odd to me that people would ignore it because the someone told them they were done away with and yet have never proved that themselves.

remember; 2000 years in the past issues have been distinctive. females did no longer frequently return and forth and "lodges" basically had a huge room the place visitors all slept on rugs.Mary became into going to have a sprint one so of path that became into no longer likely to be conceivable in a communal room; the only decision became into the best. as quickly as lower back remember;animals at night have been saved on the floor floor of the homestead below the living quarters so fairly the best became into area of the homestead (hotel). Bethlehem (Bait Lahem; meaning the homestead of the butcher) became into in straightforward terms a small village produced from dirt outfitted homes with the objective to think of an hotel in a thriving city is incorrect!.......

By inference He was born in a stable because “7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.” Luke 2:7 (KJV)
The manger, which is a feeding through for animals, was His cradle.
In answer to your subquestion: The inn being full was due to the people returning to the place of their birth to be counted in a census.

Uh...no. Jesus definately came before Christmas so I doubt there was a holiday rush on Inn space for that reason. More than likely it was summer of fall and the inns were full because everyone was traveling to register to pay their taxes.

No it was because Caesar Augustus had sent out a decree that a census of all people had to be taken. They all had to go to the city of their birth. Joseph, was from the house of David, so he had to go to Bethlehem. So, since everyone was there, there was no room at the inn. Luke 2:1-7

Mithra was also said to have been born to a 'virgin' mother, in a stable, around 600 bc. On the 25th of December, the winter solstice.
In the first few centuries of the so-called 'Christian era', there was quite a struggle going on for predominance in religious sects, when Constantine legitimised 'Christianity' he made a choice between various candidate cults, that of Mithra being a leading one. We could just as easily be driving around with 'Mithra loves you' stickers on our bumpers.
Even the 'Cross' symbolism is a misunderstanding. Constantine personally wasan adherent of the Sol Invicta ( Sun god victorious ) cult, a descendent of Amon-Ra worship from ancient Egyptian times, itself a misunderstanding ! His troops had the red cross symbol of Sol on their shields, which was later taken to indicate the cross upon which Yashua was said to have been put to death, which is, itself, a misunderstanding !
The 'cross' in question was known in latin as 'crux simplex' and was just a large pole in the ground. The condemned was fixed to the cross-bar by rope or nails, and hoisted up until the cross bar sat atop the pole. There was never any 'Christian Cross' at Calvary.
Oh, and the time of year of Yashua bin Jusef's birth ? Most likely closer to the summer solstice, when snow would definitely not have been laying all around ! The year could not have been later than 4 bc, because Herod the Great, he who supposedly got mad and had all the first-born sons murdered ( there is no record of such an horrendous event ), he died in 4 or 5 bc !
The census was also misstated, and misdated quite seriously, the closest was one commissioned in 6 ad, and was for local taxation purposes only, not the "All the world" one as stated in Luke.
Now, ask me what kind of straw was in the manger, in the stable ..........

Christmas didn't exist for over 400 years after Christ's death as Christmas was the paganisation of christendom of the solstice worship of Saturnalia.

No. There was no room in the Inn because the government was taking a census. In order to take the census, everyone had to return to the town their family was from.
