Nowadays, St. Patrick's Day is considered not only the religious, but also the cultural holiday, which is popular not only in Ireland but is also widely spread all over the Western Europe and is celebrated on the 17th of March since the beginning of the XVII-th century. Nowadays, St. Patrick’s Day is widely celebrated in such countries, as Canada, the United States of America, Australia, Argentina, the United Kingdom, New Zealand and is even celebrated in Russia (since 1993).
St. Patrick’s Day nowadays may not be even imagined without numerous fancy-dress “green” carnivals, festive parades, national dancing competitions, “waterfalls” of beer and the main symbols of this colorful holiday - green shamrock and leprechauns (the characters of the Irish mythology that may tell you the location of the hidden gold, if you find the right approach to these fairy creatures).
