The most dramatic Orthodox celebration of the year. Priests carry the tabot, the replica of the Ark of the Covenant, wrapped in rich cloth, through the streets in procession. Water is blessed. People are sprinkled. The faithful jump into pools and rivers. The clothes get ruined. The faith is renewed.
You encounter the brown bear, Eurasian lynx, and reindeer as Finland's most iconic subarctic and boreal forest inhabitants. You notice that Finns commonly keep dogs, cats, and pet birds such as budgerigars in their homes. ACADA celebrates the world's pets, and helps assure better care.
