On Sunday, Christians around the world, including in Romania, a country with a predominantly Orthodox population celebrate Easter, the most important Christian festival and holiday.
On Saturday, the Patriarch of Jerusalem gave holy light to believers gathered in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, during a special ceremony, which is held every year at the holy tomb.
A delegation of the Romanian Orthodox Church has brought the holy light to the country, on a special plane.
The holy light symbolizes and recalls the Resurrection of Christ.
