Day of the Turkish Language Celebration in Skopje- 21 December 2008


The massive flag (above) was eventually removed in order to seat more people.


The dignitaries-- including Prime Minister Nikolai Gruevski-- were seated on the stage level.


Dancers opened the ceremony.


Waving flags as the ceremony opened...


Macedonian flags were distributed as well, but the real heart of this event was attendees' Turkish heritage.
