NEW YEAR'S MOSCOW OR WHERE DOES THE FAIRY TALE LIVE?
Description:
Celebrate the New Year in Russia is a long time and on a large scale - in January we rest for more than a week. However, the festive mood persists after the end of official holidays, because on the night of January 13-14, the whole country celebrates the old New Year.
There is magic on the streets of Moscow. The city has transformed itself by wearing its most exquisite holiday outfit: thousands of sparkling garlands, millions of shimmering LEDs and fluffy Christmas trees.
On the tour you will learn:
What is this holiday and why is the New Year Old?
History and traditions of New Year and Christmas celebration in Russia and other countries.
How pre-revolutionary Moscow celebrated: where they bought Christmas trees, what they decorated, what they gave each other, what they put on the festive table, where they bought food for the holiday and how they spent these days.
Think about your favorite movies and popular dishes.
And also about the influence of paganism on the traditions of the holiday familiar to us.
