This is Christmas in Saint Petersburg Russia | The Russian Way! 🇷🇺

Celebrating Christmas in Saint Petersburg Russia feels a little like entering a wintery, parallel world.

Instead of celebrating on 25th December, the Russians celebrate Christmas on January 7th. Instead of Father Christmas, the Russians have Father Frost as their festive figurehead. Instead of going gliding on troika rides, people here go on one-horse open sleighs, drink vodka and eat Russian caviar.

The city’s beautiful churches and cathedrals are topped with colorful domes instead of spires✨. Top buildings and streets are well decorated. Christmas trees🎄 are in place all over St. Petersburg. Frozen canals, fresh snowflakes, and Christmas lights together with amazing street artists and a Russian Christmas Market is a delight for your eyes.

But the best part is the positive vibes, energy, and smiles of the Russian people when walking around the city. The people along with the local atmosphere can really touch your soul and make your day, even during this never-ending ongoing global pandemic.

In essence, both Russia and the West celebrate Christmas, but in largely different ways! Based on my experience, the main difference is the attitude towards the religious holiday, all the rest is pretty similar.

In this video, which is my very first video on this channel, I am going to show you how people in Saint Petersburg have spent this day. Watch this video and feel the vibes of Russia's Northern Capital.😉

Happy Watching!
