[Amazing] 25 Spectacular Green Landmarks On St. Patrick´s Day
Green buildings everywhere! Ok maybe not everywhere, but on this St. Patrick’s day you may see a lot of them. In fact some of our most beloved and popular structures, architecture, and even waterways will be sporting a greenish color. Odd yet fascinating! Renowned landmarks from around the world will turn green to pay tribute to the Irish patron and to celebrate this wonderful holiday we call St. Patrick’s Day. It should come as no surprise that this tradition of green landmarks on st. Patrick’s day originated in Ireland (where many important landmarks and buildings have already been going green). However, in the last couple of years, this unusual campaign has spread far beyond St. Patrick´s homeland´s borders as it has become a popular event in many other countries and cities all over the world. Consequently, a number of iconic landmarks across the world are now illuminated and dyed green on St. Patrick´s Day.
It’s hard to imagine what the legendary Irish patron would think if he knew that some of the world´s most famous sites like the Empire State Building, the Sydney Opera House, the Colosseum and even Niagara Falls are turning green in his honor but one thing is for sure – viewing these landmarks in all of their green glory is a truly unique and spectacular experience. So without further ado, these are 25 Spectacular Green Landmarks On St. Patrick´s Day.
