Palm Sunday

Just got to know today is Palm Sunday. (圣枝主日,棕枝全日或称棕榈星期日)

It is the Sunday before Easter, observed by Christians in commemoration of Jesus's entry into Jerusalem, when palm fronds were strewn before him.

Have no idea whether people in Germany regard it a special day, cos haven't found anything special, pedestrians in the street are no more or fewer than on any ordinary Sundays.

The only exception seems to be the resounding tolls from the neighboring Jewish church far more frequent than normal Sabbath days.
