Where to go for the New Year?
The best thing about the planet Earth is its extraordinary diversity, which is manifested in everything. In people, nature, even in the traditions of celebrating the New Year.
New Year's traditions around the world
INFOBUS knows that each of you has a different way of spending your holidays. Everyone has their own needs and desires. But all of you want positive and pleasant emotions, fulfilment of desires and cherished dreams. Well, we are in a hurry to help you with this and choose the most successful route.
¡Feliz Año Nuevo!
If you don't have enough kisses and hugs in your everyday life, head to Spain. The Spaniards love to do this even with strangers. During a meeting, they hug and exchange dos besos (two kisses, touching first one and then the other cheek).
The holiday is celebrated in Spain with loud and cheerful music. In the first seconds of the new year, family members kiss each other, wishing each other happiness and good luck. This looks very funny against the backdrop of another tradition - eating 12 grapes while the chimes are ringing to make a wish come true. After all, berries usually remain in the mouth, which cannot be chewed and swallowed so quickly.
Spaniards often celebrate the New Year on festively decorated streets. So if you decide to join them, bring a bright wig, hat or other accessory. You can just walk the streets and enjoy the lavish decorations and illuminations of parks, shops and cafes. If you want something more, you should head to the largest cathedral or temple in the city. The square in front of it will definitely have some kind of event. In Barcelona, for example, the largest fair is located near the Fira de Santa Llúcia and Mercat de Nadal de la Sagrada Familia.
Wherever you go in Spain, INFOBUS will help you get into a real fairy tale. And for those who still believe that only summer holidays are possible in this country, you should visit the Sierra Nevada ski resort.
Καλή χρονιά!
If you often have to restrain your emotions, Greece is the perfect place to celebrate the New Year. There is a tradition here of smashing a pomegranate against the door. The more splashes and pieces scattered around, the more successful the year will be.
Greece has it all: mountains, sea, incredible beaches, ancient monuments and delicious food. The Greeks really know how to have fun and make others feel good. In addition, they honour their traditions and keep the ancient law of hospitality. In this country, especially during the holidays, you will never go hungry or in a bad mood.
The garlands on the streets and festively decorated houses, carnivals and nativity scenes are a separate story. It is better to see it once than to read about it several times. The mighty peaks of Olympus in flashes of fireworks will remain in your heart forever. You can check the availability of tickets for the route of your choice in the INFOBUS service.
Frohes Neues!
Germany welcomes all those who like to eat tasty and satisfying food on New Year's holidays. The Germans celebrate the New Year loudly, with firecrackers, crackers and fireworks, because they sincerely believe that this will help them drive out all evil spirits. They enjoy traditional dishes (fried carp, stewed pork, pancakes with various fillings), but also like lighter snacks and salads.
The Weinachtsmann, dressed in an old, turned-upside-down coat and belted with a chain, comes to the obedient children with gifts. Germans, in the truest sense of the expression, jump into the new year. To do this, in the first minutes of 1 January, they climb onto a chair or sofa and jump down.
Young people in Germany love to party. On New Year's Eve, they stretch for kilometres along the streets of cities. The music, drive and enchanting festivities of Berlin energise them for the whole year ahead.
Hyvää uutta vuotta!
Don't believe in miracles? Then go to Finland. Here you can not only visit Santa Claus or Joulupukki, as the Finns call him, but also get into a real winter fairy tale. Every year, Finland hosts amazing ice festivals, where you can enjoy the beauty of elegant sculptures carved from ice and snow with a glass of mulled wine or a cup of fragrant tea. Impressive art installations all over the country give Finnish cities a special atmosphere.
In addition, you can visit real ice hotels in Finland, where each room is unique. The winter landscape with protected forests and lakes will add a little philosophical touch to your festive mood. After all, how can you not think about human existence in this wonder?
Do not miss the opportunity to plunge into the world of Finnish traditions and feel the drive of the New Year holidays in a true winter style.
Häid uut aastat
Estonians believe that all problems and troubles can be washed away in a sauna, and that they can start the new year healthy, with pure thoughts and intentions. Whole families go to the sauna, which is why many SPA salons are overcrowded during this period. After such miraculous treatments, Estonians have the strength to celebrate the arrival of the New Year loudly until the early hours of the morning. Generous tables with a variety of meat and fish dishes, fireworks and sweets are a guarantee of prosperity in the coming year. After the celebration, the leftovers are left on the table for disembodied guests to enjoy.
The picturesque streets, covered with snow and decorated with illumination, resemble a picture from a postcard or an illustration for one of Andersen's fairy tales. And Tallinn, the capital of Estonia, is a living monument of architectural antiquity, where every stone has witnessed incredible historical and cultural events. If you want to turn up the volume, head to the Town Hall Square, where the annual folk festival is held.
