Today in Russia people celebrate “Chistiy Сhetverg” (Clean Thursday). Maundy Thursday is known as the day of the Last Supper, when Jesus brought new teachings to his disciples, and washed their feet as a sign of love and humility. The night that follows is the time when Jesus was betrayed by Judas. Following an old tradition, Russians clean up their homes and themselves, going to bath houses.

And do you know what people usually say to each other after Russian banya?! - «С легким паром!»
