The All Saint's Day which is at 1st of November, is a bank holiday in Poland and one of the most important Catholic holidays during the year. Those who lost their loved ones go to the cemeteries to pay their respects to the dead. They burn candles on the graves and bring flowers. It is sometimes also called as the day of the remembrance of the ones who are gone.
