Good Friday(耶稣受难日)

Good Friday falls on the Friday before Easter Sunday, two days before Easter. It is a moveable feast, occurring between March 20 and April 23 depending on the date of Easter. The date changes each year according to the computus calculation.

Good Friday is a Christian observance commemorating the crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ at Calvary. It is the most somber day in the Christian calendar, observed with solemn church services, fasting, and processions. Despite its name, 'Good' refers to the holy or pious nature of the day in older English usage.

Good Friday is observed in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Germany, Spain, Italy, Brazil, Philippines, New Zealand, and Ireland, among many others. It is widely recognized in Christian-majority countries across Europe, the Americas, Africa, and Oceania.

Good Friday is a public holiday in many countries including the UK, Australia, Canada, Germany, Philippines, and most Caribbean nations. In the United States, it is not a federal holiday but is observed as a state holiday in some states and by many businesses.

Good Friday traditions include attending church services, the Stations of the Cross (Via Crucis), fasting or abstaining from meat, and attending solemn processions. Traditional foods include hot cross buns in the UK and fish dishes. In the Philippines, dramatic re-enactments of the crucifixion are held in many communities.
