Christmas in January

in travel •  7 years ago 

The Orthodox church of Russia is still using the old Julian calendar, which means that December 25th for us is January 7th for them. For that reason even in late January you see lots of Christmas trees, Christmas markets and light installations all over Moscow. 

A Christmas tree at Tretyakovskaya Art Gallery

Light installations at Sokolniki Park

Kitschy animals at Sokolniki Park

Summer will come

The cold is not that bad if you wear the right clothes.

The Christmas Market on the Red Square

So when you're in Moscow in January, be prepared for Christmas!
