For more than 20 years in the city of Montana, there has been a tradition on January 6 for people to go to Montanenzium Park, where there is an artificial lake, suitable for conducting the Orthodox Christian ritual called "Saving the Holy Cross" on the Epiphany. Enthusiasts to plunge into the park's icy waters are usually no more than 20 residents of Montana. This year, however, the church ritual will attract many more fans of the tradition from the Northwest. To the ritual of sanctifying the water and saving the Cross of God in Montana, a new folk element is added, namely a male dance, like the one that attracts many guests every year in the town of Kalofer.
