święta w polsce

In Poland, Christmas is celebrated very solemnly because Poland is Catolic country. The Christmas celebration are very old. Weeks before the whole family looks forward to the Christmas dinner in Poland, as is planned, chopped, cooked, baked and fried.

When the first the star is shining in the sky, in Christmas Eve, Polish families are sitting down to richly set tables, next to the ceremonially decorated Christmas tree. In Christmas tabble are twelve traditional dishes (the number of twelve apostles)

The Christmas Eve is included to the Catholic belief still in a fast, so all dishes are must be meatless. Here we are showing you the typical Christmas dishes from our houses. The most popular fish is a carp.

Before the meal, it we are praying and we are reading the Bible history of Lordly being born in Bethlehem. Next divide up the Christmas wafer with close family.

In the Christmas Eve in the morning we are decorating the Christmas tree. There are a lot of color glass balls, lights, chains and stars on it. Star is a main symbol of the Christmas.

After Christmas Eve singing Christmas carols and looking for gifts under the tree. Then we go to midnight mass in the church.

The New Year's Eve dance and have fun. Together at midnight to welcome the new year.
