Easter in Poland
Easter is one of the most significant and symbolic holidays of the year. It is associated with spring, rebirth, family, and hope. During this time, people all over the world celebrate Easter with their families.
🌸 Where does Easter come from?
The most important event is the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, which we celebrate on Easter Sunday. The entire week before is called Holy Week. It begins with Palm Sunday, and Good Friday is also an important day.
🌸 Easter is full of symbols:
