Russia is a truly unique country, which, along with a highly developed modern culture, carefully preserves the traditions of its nation, deeply rooted not only in Orthodoxy, but even in paganism. Russians continue to celebrate pagan holidays, believe in numerous folk signs and traditions.
Christianity gave the Russians such wonderful holidays as Easter, Christmas and the ceremony of Baptism, and paganism - Pancake Week and Ivan Kupala.
Easter
Easter is the bright holiday of Christ's resurrection. This holiday came to Russia from Byzantium, along with baptism at the end of the X century. Since then, this Christian holiday has been widely, beautifully and solemnly celebrated throughout Russia. More details
Christmas
Christmas is the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ, the savior of the world, with the advent of which people have found hope for mercy, kindness, truth, and eternal life. The Orthodox Church celebrates Christmas according to the Julian calendar on January 7, in contrast to the Western churches celebrating it on December 25 according to the Gregorian calendar.

Christmas post Christmas Eve Christmas time Epiphany Ivan Kupala
Even at the time of paganism among the ancient Rus, the deity Kupalo existed, personifying summer fertility. In his honor, in the evenings, they sang songs and jumped over the fire. This ceremonial action turned into an annual celebration of the summer solstice, mixing pagan and Christian tradition. After the baptism of Rus, the deity Kupalo began to be called Ivan, when he was replaced by none other than John the Baptist (more precisely, his folk image), who baptized Christ himself and whose Christmas was celebrated on June 24.
