What is National Day for the PRC?

On October 1, 1949 in front of many, many people at Tain’nmen Square, Chairman Mao declared the founding of the People’s Republic of China. It was during this declaration that he waved the red five-star flag.  This very important date became the PRC’s National Day and is a marked holiday for all.  This year the People’s Republic of China celebrates 60 years as a nation.  The celebration will be quite special with a monumental parade and spectacular fireworks show.

This is the picture of Chairman Mao that may be seen from Tian'nmen Square.
