• Russia has extensive public holiday lists, including federal, regional, ethnic, professional, and religious days.
• Federal and regional holidays are national closures and must be included in trip planning.
• The New Year Holidays (January 1–5) are often combined with Christmas, creating an extended period of closure.
• Orthodox Christmas is observed on January 7.
• General table manners follow traditional European norms. It is advised to wait for permission before leaving the dining table. While refusing drinks is expected to be firm, claiming difficulties may be ineffective. Accepting second helpings can be viewed positively. Additionally, do not rest elbows on the table or sit at the corner.
