Today Armenians celebrate their independence and culture, with festivities, fireworks, and flag-waving all over the Eurasian country. The colors of the flag can be seen waving in cities and towns throughout Armenia, and especially in the National Day parade through the capital city of Yerevan.
In Yerevan the day begins in the central Republic Square, with a live performance of “Mer Hayrenik” the Armenian national anthem and other traditional songs. Dancers perform in traditional costume — big belt buckles for men; ornate headbands for women. The National Day parade includes a show of military strength, as the nation celebrates its emergence as a sovereign state.
The evening celebrations center around the fireworks. If you’re lucky enough to be in Republic Square, you can watch them explode in the sky, reflected in the pool next to the dramatically lit opera house.
Happy National Day, Armenia!
