Many people in Latin America give gifts on a holiday 12 days after Christmas. This holiday is called Three Kings' Day. What is this holiday named after?

For many Christians in Spain and Latin America, the holiday season officially ends on January 6, which is the 12th day of Christmas known as the Feast of the Epiphany, or Three Kings' Day. The holiday celebrates the biblical tale in which the Three Kings, or Three Wise Men, visit baby Jesus after his birth.

The biblical Magi also referred to as the (Three) Wise Men or (Three) Kings, were - in the Gospel of Matthew and Christian tradition - distinguished foreigners who visited Jesus after his birth, bearing gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh.
