Weirdest German Holiday Celebrations
My German 🇩🇪 friends told me I must come to Dusseldorf on 27th of February and see this myself 😁.
So I took a flight from Tokyo to Dusseldorf yesterday and here I am after 17-hours flight in Germany 🇩🇪😅 celebrating FASTNACHT – world famous German carnival 🎪. The main idea of the holiday is to rest and have fun after a long winter and before the beginning of Lent.
In old days the beginning of carnival (Weiberfastnacht) was celebrated only by women. But of course today is a holiday for everyone in Germany 🇩🇪😁.
I am from Belarus 🇧🇾 and it is hard for me to imagine such a carnival in my own country.
And what about you? Do you have similar fun holidays in your country? 🤗⤵️

‘The Düsseldorfer Karneval is the Düsseldorf variant of the "fifth season" known as carnival. The Düsseldorf carnival begins on 11 November each year with the symbolic awakening of the Hoppeditz and ends on Ash Wednesday of the following year with his burial’
