Google doodle celebrates Greece National Day 2017

 Google doodle is celebrating Greece National Day 2017 by posting a beautiful Google logo on its home page.

Greek Independence Day, observed on March 25th, celebrates the country gaining independence from the Ottoman Empire after 400 years of rule. The national holiday is marked by great parades, patriotic speeches, and demonstrations by Greek armed forces. Towns throughout Greece hold a school flag parade, during which children march in traditional costumes and carry Greek flags. Lots of families also celebrate with a lunch of bakaliaros (batter-fried salted cod) and skordalia (garlic and potato dip), and if the weather is good, their first ice cream of the season.

Doodles are the fun, surprising, and sometimes spontaneous changes that are made to the Google logo to celebrate holidays, anniversaries, and the lives of famous artists, pioneers, and scientists.

Happy Independence Day!
