Winter is coming. When we start to put on warmer clothes, people in Russia are ready for a “cool” activity—swimming in icy water! Yes, Russian people like winter swimming.
Winter swimming is a part of the Russian festival Epiphany. It comes in January, the coldest month in Russia.
People dig holes(挖洞) in ice-covered rivers. Then they jump into the holes and swim in the cold water. People of all ages join the activity, even little kids. Parents think it could help their kids to grow stronger.

After swimming, people quickly put on clothes to keep warm. Some winter swimmers even sing and dance after swimming to show their excitement. They really enjoy this special winter activity and it has become an important part of their culture(文化).
