Carnival - spring custom Russians and Belarusians

Carnival is my favorite national holiday. It is celebrated both in Russia and in Belarus, carefully preserving folk traditions. This year the carnival is celebrated from 24 February to 2 March. Pancake week we associate with pancakes, flavoured tea, sweet bagels, dance, songs and dances, the burning of effigies of Winter.
