One of the most wanted places to visit during your life has some quirky ways of celebrating this time of the year and we\u2019ll tell you just why. Australia doesn\u2019t have an Easter bunny<\/strong><\/a>. We know, we were shocked as well! But there\u2019s a good reason for it: in this part of the world, bunnies are considered\u00a0a pest for destroying crops and land. So, in 1991 the Easter bunny turned into Eater bilby meaning rabbit-eared bandicoot.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s certainly not because of the smell don\u2019t worry! It\u2019s believed that water had as cleaning, healing and fertility inducing the effect. Believe it or not, young men used to pour buckets of water over young women\u2019s heads!<\/p>\n

Sweden<\/strong><\/h3>\n

In Sweden, children\u00a0dress up! Witches are the main costumes, children wearing long skirts, colourful headscarves and painted red cheeks, go from home to home in their neighbourhoods trading paintings and drawings in the hope of receiving sweets! Such a sweet event don\u2019t you think?<\/p>\n

Bulgaria<\/strong><\/h3>\n

While in Bulgaria you must be ready for a fight! Keep calm, it\u2019s not a real one! One of the main traditions of the country is to have an egg fight<\/a>,<\/strong> the purpose? To get unscathed with an unbroken egg. This supposedly determines the most successful\u00a0member of the family in the coming year. Another tradition states that the oldest woman in the family has to rub the first red egg she coloured in the faces of children \u2013 a symbol of her health and strength.<\/p>\n

Sicily<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

In Sicily, Easter is celebrated in a very different way from Florence. In Prizzi, people dressed in custom pester as many \u201csouls\u201d as they can harvest before the afternoon comes. Why the afternoon? That\u2019s when the Virgin Mary and the risen Christ save the day by sending angels. According to The Telegraph, \u201cthe\u00a0Abballu de daivuli<\/em>\u00a0is a representation of devils from locals wearing terrifying masks of zinc and dressed in red robes,\u201d.<\/p>\n
