The Doodle for today honors Bulgaria Liberation Day! One of Europe’s oldest nations, the Balkan nation gained independence on this day in 1878. People from all over Bulgaria come together to celebrate the holiday with joy and pride each year.
Today’s artwork shows Bulgaria’s national flag flying proudly over its charming mountain villages and dreamy coastal towns.
People line up to watch the most important events of the day in Sofia’s cobblestoned, narrow streets: at the Monument of the Unknown Soldier, fireworks and a wreath-laying ceremony took place. At local squares, people gather to enjoy dances and concerts in smaller towns and villages. The vibrant performances are a stunning illustration of Bulgaria’s extensive cultural heritage.
Bulgaria, happy Liberation Day!
