How People Celebrate Easter From Different Countries

In France, Easter is called Paques. France celebrates Easter in lots of different ways.

Traditionally, the chocolate is brought not by the Easter Bunny but by flying bells, as well as eggs. Then the bells start ringing, symbolizing Christ’s return. Making a giant omelet, decorating chocolate eggs..etc

In Italy, the Easter Festival is in many ways even bigger than Christmas. The Italians are also graced with a long bank holiday weekend. Religious parades and celebrations are held in many towns and cities nationwide. Easter meals vary but include eggs, Easter pie, and lamb.

But in Mexico, nearly 90% of Mexicans practice Catholicism which means that nearly 100 million Christians have a reason to believe that the Semana Santa, the Holy Week leading up to Easter, is the most important holiday in the church calendar.

In Australia, they no longer talk about the Easter Bunny. In fact, bunnies have been a real issue in Australia and the government is doing its best to address the issue of the long ear animal’s massive proliferation. As a result, the Easter icon in this country has been changed and is now the Easter Bilby. This has been carried out by the government to support the endangered Australian marsupial.
