Easter Monday is the day after Easter Sunday and the second day of the Easter festival. In most of Western and Central Europe it is a public holiday, and it creates a four-day weekend with Good Friday. The day is also observed in some Orthodox countries, such as Greece, Cyprus and Romania, where it is sometimes called Bright Monday and follows the Orthodox date. The holiday is sometimes called the second day of Easter, and in some places, such as Slovakia or Poland, it has a name of its own that refers to the sprinkling traditions of the day. It also gives many people a four-day weekend for travel.
The Gospel read in many churches on the day is the story of the walk to Emmaus, in which two disciples meet the risen Jesus without recognising him. For most people the holiday is less about church services than about family visits, walks, picnics and meals. Many countries have folk customs of their own, such as the egg-rolling and egg-hunt traditions of Britain and Germany, or the sprinkling and whipping customs of Hungary, Poland, Slovakia and the Czech Republic. Regional customs vary a lot, so the same date can look quite different depending on where it is celebrated.
