Abstract
The aim of my presentation is to introduce you to one of the oldest Russian traditions. "Banya" is a kind of sauna. It is a place where Russians go to relax, meet friends and wash themselves. Despite the tradition first appearing in the 5th century, it is very popular even today.
There are two ways to steam: the black way and the white way. The main difference between them is in the construction. If you go to a "banya" you have to take important assesories, which include a towel,venik??, a cap hat and slippers.
Going to a banya helps to clean the skin, fight sicknesses, lose weight and also to meet new friends, because the banya atmosphere brings people closer together and it is a place where they have conversations about life and they share their ideas or beliefs. After a banya Russians usually drink aromatic tea or special herbal tea.
In the end of presentation There are interesting proverbs which are connected with to the banya tradition. For example They said "The day you spend in the banya is the day you do not age."
