Türkiye National Day 2024

Google Dooles 29.10.2024 02:46  Date: October 29, 2024 Today’s annual Doodle celebrates Türkiye’s Republic Day! On this day in 1923, The Grand National Assembly declared Türkiye to be a republic officially and Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, who led the country’s independence movement, was elected as the first president. On Republic Day, state officials and citizens visit Anıtkabir in Ankara to commemorate the founding father of The Republic of Türkiye, Atatürk, and lay wreaths on his mausoleum. People also gather in streets and stadiums for celebrations and traditionally, they join celebratory walks which are held in the evening. All across the country, the red-and-white Turkish flag can be seen floating high in the sky — just like in today’s artwork. At night, an awe-inspiring firework show lights up the night sky for the celebrations. Happy Republic Day, Türkiye! Location: Tags:
