Russian holidays

The first holiday of the year is New Year's Day. People see the new year in at midnight on the 31st of December. They greet the new year with champagne and listen to the Kremlin chimes beating 12 o'clock.

There are lots of New Year traditions in Russia. In every home there is a New Year tree glittering with coloured lights and decorations. Children always wait for Father Frost to come and give them a present. Many people consider New Year's Day to be a family holiday. But the young prefer to have New Year parties of their own.A renewed holiday in our country is Christmas. It is celebrated on the 7th of January. It's a religious holiday and a lot of people go to church services on that day.

The  23d of February, it is a public holiday called "The Homeland Defenders Day". All men in Russia are liable for call-up (including reservists), so they all are celebrities. On this day women usually give men small gifts.

 One of the most admirable holidays is Maslenitsa. People see off winter, and open themselves for spring. It is celebrated during the last week before the Lent. During this time people visit their friends, bake pancakes. If we look back to the history we will find that each day has its own tradition. On Monday people meet the pancake week. On Tuesday there is folk tunes. On Wednesday  the mother-in-law invite to pancakes her sons-in-law with wives. On Thursday people usually sledge. On Friday sons-in-law call the mother-in-law on entertainment. Saturday is usually taken as meetings with sisters-in-law. Sunday is called «day of pardon». This day everyone try to  see friends, relatives and acquaintances, exchanged kisses, bows and are sorry if they have offended acts or words.

On the 8th of March we celebrate Women's Day when men are supposed to do everything about the house and cook all the meals. This is pretty nice — at least once a year women can take a break and forget about all those dishes, cooking, kids, take a magazine and relax on a coach.

 The most important orthodox holiday is  Christ’s Revival which is also called Easter. This day is familiar to everyone since childhood. Brightly painted eggs, tasty smelling Easter cakes full the atmosphere of this day.  People prepare for celebrating this day beforehand. On Saturday believers bake Easter cakes, bear them in church with painted eggs for consecration. 

The greatest national holiday in our country is Victory Day. On the 9th of May, 1945, the Soviet Army completely defeated the German fascists and the Second World War and the Great Patriotic War ended. Many veterans take part in the military parade and lay wreaths on the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. Television broadcast popular war songs. A lot of guests from different countries of the . world come to Moscow to participate in the celebrations.

Independence Day is anew holiday in our country. Russia’s Independence Day is observed on the 12th of June. Russia became an independent country, the Republic of the Russian Federation after the break up of the Soviet Union in 1991. On the 12th of June, 1992, the first President of Russia was elected. 

Unity Day is held on November 4 ..The day's name means to the idea that all classes of Russian society united to preserve Russia when there was neither a tsar nor a patriarch to guide them. In 1613 tsar Mikhail Romanov instituted a holiday named Day of Moscow’s Liberation from Polish Invaders. It was celebrated in the Russian Empire until 1917, when it was replaced with a commemoration of the Russian Revolution. Unity Day was reinstituted by the Russian Federation in 2005, when the events of the year 1612 have been celebrated instead of those of 1917 every November 4 since. The day is also the feast day of the Russian Orthodox icon of Our Lady of Kazan.
