Easter observation in Tuva

The entire world of Orthodox Christianity is celebrating  the Bright resurrection of Christ - Easter. In Kyzyl, traditionally, the believers first attend all-night services at the Holy Trinity church. Easter, the day of  the miraculous resurrection of  Christ, is the culmination of the seven days of mourning - a week of remembrance of  Christ's Way of the Cross. Every day of the Passion week has its own  symbolic significance, and it is observed differently. There are church services every day.
