Moscow, April 24, Interfax – Only 7 per cent of Russians are not going to celebrate Easter this year. These are the data of the polls conducted by Yury Levada Analytical Center on April 11 – 14 among 1600 citizens. Young people aged from18 to 25 living in the northwestern district and small towns are more frequent among those who plan to visit the night Easter liturgy. Egg painting is most popular among those Russians who will celebrate Easter as sociologists say that 73 per cent of their respondents will do it the next few days. Among less popular cares are buying and baking Easter cakes (43 per cent and 32 per cent relatively), welcoming guests at home and going to see friends (29 per cent and 26 per cent), visiting cemetery (28 per cent), blessing Easter cakes (24 per cent), cooking Easter cream cheese (13 per cent), visiting festival Liturgy (10 per cent) and giving presents to relatives (8 per cent). Women are going to celebrate Easter more often than men, though men like to go to Easter parties more than women, the Levada-Center states.
