Green takes over again - St. Patrick's Day!
St. Patrick's Day is Ireland's national holiday, celebrated around the world on 17 March. It takes its name from St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, who brought Christianity to the island in the 400s.
Historically, St Patrick used the three-leaved clover as a symbol to explain the concept of the Holy Trinity to the Irish people. This symbol is still present on St. Patrick's Day, where the colour green and the three-leaf clover are key elements.
Today, St. Patrick's Day has expanded beyond the borders of Ireland and is celebrated all over the world. New York's St. Patrick's Day parade is one of the biggest celebrations, attracting millions of people every year. In Finland, the celebration has grown in popularity in recent years and many bars and restaurants organise St Patrick's Day-themed events across the country.
One of the traditional ways to celebrate St. Patrick's Day is to wear green. The colour green symbolises the Irish countryside and evokes thoughts of lush meadows and clovers. Many people around the world celebrate this holiday by wearing green clothing and jewellery.
