Now Russians have the opportunity to rest on New Year's and Christmas for a long time - ten whole days. But the problem arises, how to allocate time so that to spend these holidays fun and interesting, and so that they will be remembered for the whole year. How to properly organize your vacation?
Instructions
Step 1
If you are into overseas travel and you have enough money, purchase an overseas tour during your holidays. However, keep in mind that the cost of such a trip on Christmas will be higher than, for example, in February. But you can save money if you organize the trip yourself by booking plane tickets and a hotel room.
Step 2
If you enjoy an active holiday, consider taking a trip to a ski resort. They are also in our country, for example, in Sochi or Altai. It is good to travel on such trips with a large group, with friends - in this case, you can save on accommodation by renting one cottage for several people. This can be cheaper than individual hotel rooms.
Step 3
In the event that you stay in your city, you can also find a lot of interesting things to do. Check out the theater and concert program. Many cultural institutions organize various theme nights and performances for adults and children. Also, various festive exhibitions and excursions can be in local museums.
Step 4
Children can be entertained by going to various matinees, many of which are held after the New Year, closer to Christmas. Also, various festive performances are organized in circuses. Christmas trees are usually installed in large city parks, and various entertainment programs with the participation of Santa Claus and Snow Maiden are held there in the evening. During the day, in the parks you can ride on skating rinks and slides.
Step 5
Celebrate Christmas. Before the revolution, this particular holiday was one of the main ones on the calendar. Christmas can be a good occasion to get to know more about the Orthodox traditions of Russian culture. In order to better understand the meaning and traditions of this holiday, study how it was previously celebrated. This can be done both in books and in materials from various sites, including the Orthodox one.
