This holiday covers a long weekend in Italy, with the additional Italian observance of <em>Pasquetta<\/em> (little Easter, also called Easter Monday)<em>\u00a0<\/em>which according to tradition, you are free to celebrate as you wish. In fact, young people during this holiday tend to stay at a friend&#8217;s country home or spend a long weekend in another city with no parents at all.

Easter is a particular exciting one for children since they receive over-sized, hollow chocolate eggs with a surprise inside. I, a native Roman, remember several instances during which I waited in anticipation while my brother broke an immense chocolate egg with embroidered sugar decoration during an Easter at a friend&#8217;s country house. One of my favorite things to do during this period is stroll through the streets of the city and look at the store windows decorated with these chocoate eggs of all sizes, shapes, and colors.<\/p>\n<p>The painted hard boiled egg \u00a0is also an activity that many children engage in. Some children paint the eggs themselves, while others color them in simple, monochrome ways by placing various spices, vegetables or fruits in boiling water. Some of the most common dyes are: beets for red, vinegar for brown, saffron for yellow, and blueberry for blue.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>2. Florence: La Festa del Carro<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>This tradition started in 1096, following the return of a Florentine knight, <em>Pazzino di Ranieri de\u2019 Pazzi<\/em>, who raised the Holy Cross banner in Jerusalem during the Crusades. For his bravery, he received pieces of flint from the\u00a0Holy Sepulcher of Christ. Upon his return to Florence, these stones were used to light the Easter Vigil sacred fire and then ported around the streets of Florence.<\/p>\n<p>Today Florentines commemorate this event with a Sunday procession during which a 30-foot tall antique cart is pulled by a team of white oxen during a parade of 150 soldiers, musicians and other people dressed in 15th-century attire. The procession starts at <em>Porta al Prato<\/em> and ends in <em>Piazza del Duomo<\/em> in front of <em>Santa Maria del Fiore<\/em>. Once arrived, a dove-shaped rocket (<i>La Colombina)<\/i>\u00a0holding an olive branch is shot towards a cart loaded with fireworks, setting off the <i>scoppio<\/i>\u00a0(the boom). This yearly event is meant to bring a bountiful harvest, stable civic life, and growing business.<\/p>\n<h2>3. Rome: the City of the Vatican and not Only<\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_25233\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-25233\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/selectitaly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/vatican-315904_1280-e1427280804207.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-25233\" src=\"https:\/\/selectitaly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/vatican-315904_1280-e1427280804207.jpg\" alt=\"italian Traditions\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-25233\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Saint Peter&#8217;s Square<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Rome is the city where the Vatican state resides, and who at this time a year is a mecca for Catholic pilgrims (do note that the Sistine Chapel does have exceptional closures during this long weekend celebration). Lucky for Roman visitors, however, all the other museums will stay open.<\/p>\n<p>On Good Friday many people gather in Saint Peter&#8217;s Basilica to listen to the Pope&#8217;s mass at 5 pm, and immediately following, the Pope starts his walk to remember the Christ\u2019s\u00a0<i>Via Crucis <\/i>with\u00a0a candlelit procession\u00a0starting at the Palatine Hill. After making 14 stops along the way to remember the walk of Christ and pray, the holy pontiff ends at the\u00a0Colosseum. The beauty of this procession also lies in the gathering of many pilgrims with torches who follow: even for those who are do not consider themselves religious, this even it magical.<\/p>\n<p>Traditional Easter food is the second most important celebration during <i>Pasqua.<\/i>\u00a0If you want to eat at a restaurant, you&#8217;ll definitely want to first check if the place is open and second, make a reservation, noting that several restaurants do close from Good Friday till\u00a0<em>Pasquetta.<\/em> While dining in Rome, you won&#8217;t want to miss the Roman traditional foods of <em>Pizza Sbattuta, <\/em>a sponge cake, hard boiled eggs, ham and <i>corallina,\u00a0<\/i>a typical\u00a0salami for Easter, as well as different varieties of salty cakes. You will also want to try the traditional lunch, consisting of oven-baked lamb,\u00a0<em>carciofi alla romana\u00a0<\/em>(Roman-style artichokes) and <em>colomba <\/em>(dove-shaped cake).<\/p>\n<div>\n<h2 id=\"pageitem-body19409-edit\">4.

A famous Italian saying for this time of year is:\"Natale con i tuoi, a Pasqua con chi vuoi.\" (At Christmas with your parents, at Easter with whomever you want.) Visitors to Italy who are not spending time with friends may be interested to find that every city has their own traditions of note, and while you may not have friends and family to celebrate with, there are several ways to enjoy an uniquely Italian Easter.","og_url":"https:\/\/selectitaly.com\/blog\/all-you-can-italy\/4-italian-traditions-easter\/","og_site_name":"It&#039;s All About Italy","article_published_time":"2015-03-25T15:00:57+00:00","article_modified_time":"2021-01-10T20:23:24+00:00","og_image":[{"width":1024,"height":683,"url":"https:\/\/selectitaly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/5914-1024x683.jpg","type":"image\/jpeg"}],"author":"Select Italy","twitter_card":"summary_large_image","twitter_misc":{"Written by":"Select Italy","Est. reading time":"5 minutes"},"schema":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Article","@id":"https:\/\/selectitaly.com\/blog\/all-you-can-italy\/4-italian-traditions-easter\/#article","isPartOf":{"@id":"https:\/\/selectitaly.com\/blog\/all-you-can-italy\/4-italian-traditions-easter\/"},"author":{"name":"Select Italy","@id":"https:\/\/selectitaly.com\/blog\/#\/schema\/person\/5cd6bb8d85286f98fe2a5cb85526165a"},"headline":"4 Italian Traditions For Easter","datePublished":"2015-03-25T15:00:57+00:00","dateModified":"2021-01-10T20:23:24+00:00","mainEntityOfPage":{"@id":"https:\/\/selectitaly.com\/blog\/all-you-can-italy\/4-italian-traditions-easter\/"},"wordCount":943,"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/selectitaly.com\/blog\/all-you-can-italy\/4-italian-traditions-easter\/#primaryimage"},"thumbnailUrl":"https:\/\/selectitaly.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/5914.jpg","keywords":["chocolate egg","colomba dessert","easter in italy","florence tradition","food tradition","holiday italian traditions","italian traditions","napolitan food","pasqua in italy","rome tradition","trieste food","uova di pasqua","what to do in italy","you and italy"],"articleSection":["All You Can Italy"],"inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https:\/\/selectitaly.com\/blog\/all-you-can-italy\/4-italian-traditions-easter\/","url":"https:\/\/selectitaly.com\/blog\/all-you-can-italy\/4-italian-traditions-easter\/","name":"4 Italian Traditions For Easter -
