New Years Tree

Categories: Holidays
  • New Year's is one of the most widely celebrated holidays in Russia, and the New Year's tree is a major part of traditional celebrations. Rather than the traditional Christmas tree, Russians have New Year trees, which serve a similar purpose. Like Christmas trees, the New Year's trees are elaborately decorated and often become the centerpieces of holiday decorations in many Russian homes. After the 1917 Bolshevick Revolution the celebration of religious holidays was banned in Russia; residents began decorating New Year's trees instead.Russian Crafts: Russian Christmas Daily Vanguard: Russian traditions for celebrating the New Year
