Mexican Flag Day: A Celebration of National Pride
Imagine a day dedicated entirely to your country s flag, a day brimming with pride and patriotism. In Mexico, that day is February 24th, known as Mexican Flag Day or Día de la Bandera. It s not just a day; it s a celebration of Mexico's history, independence, and national identity. The Mexican flag, with its rich history, is one of the most recognized flags worldwide. It was first adopted in 1821, and it underwent several changes before reaching its current design in 1968.
The flag's colors are much more than decorative. Each color tells a story. Green stands for hope, white for purity, and red for the blood of the national heroes. At the center, there s a coat of arms featuring an eagle perched on a cactus, devouring a snake - a symbol from an ancient Aztec legend.
On Flag Day, across Mexico, schools organize cultural events, and people proudly display their flags. The most impressive celebration takes place at the Zócalo Square in Mexico City, where a massive flag is hoisted high. So, next February 24th, don t forget to spare a thought for our neighbors south of the border as they celebrate their Flag Day!
