STORYLINE:
Romania's Christian Orthodox church held large procession in Bucharest on Saturday, ahead of Palm Sunday.

In Christian tradition, Palm Sunday marks the Sunday before Easter when Jesus made a triumphal entry into Jerusalem.

On Saturday, hundreds of Orthodox priests dressed in gold-coloured cassocks took part in the 'Palm Sunday pilgrimage.'

They walked from an ancient monastery to the Orthodox Cathedral in the capital.

A religious service was also held outside the cathedral.

More than 85 percent of Romanians are Christian Orthodox.
