“ Moros y Cristianos “ – ¡No te pierdas esta estupenda fiesta! ¡Aún la puedes ver en julio, en la Comunidad Valenciana!
La fiesta de Moros y Cristianos nace como rememoración de la etapa del poderío musulmán en la Península Ibérica y de las batallas que fueron alternando el poder entre musulmanes y cristianos. Esta fiesta se celebra en distintas ciudades y pueblos españoles, como, por ejemplo, la Región de Murcia, Castilla-La Mancha, Andalucía Oriental y especialmente la Comunidad Valenciana.

World Environment Day was created in order to stimulate people’s awareness, draw political attention and increase public action regarding the Environment. It is on 5 June, the day that the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment began and was established in Stockholm, in 1972.
Every year, a different city hosts WED and commemorations are held under a different theme. This year, the WED theme is Many Species. One Planet. One Future. The global host is Rwanda – a country of great diversity that has taken serious actions in terms of environmental protection – and celebrations will go on for three days.

Children’s Day is celebrated on different days in many countries around the world. On June 1, several countries, such as Portugal, celebrate an Internacional Children’s Day. Other countries, such as Australia, celebrate a Universal Children’s Day on November 20. Many nations declare days for children on other days.
In 1925, as a result of the World Conference for the Well-being of Children, in Switzerland, June 1 was proclamed to be the International Children’s Day.
This day is usually marked with speeches on children’s rights and well-being, children TV programs, parties, various actions envolving and/or dedicated to children, families go out, among others.
