Thanksgiving Day is a traditional holiday in the US and Canada. Families and friends gather to share a feast, express gratitude, and enjoy moments of togetherness. It’s a day of reflection, thankfulness, and culinary traditions.
Thanksgiving, a holiday deeply rooted in American culture, began on September 6, 1620, with the historic journey of the Mayflower. This day not only commemorates the survival of the first settlers in Plymouth but also their encounter with the Wampanoag Indians, who played a crucial role in their survival.
Legends and symbolism abound in this American holiday. It is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November. In Canada, on the other hand, it is celebrated on the second Monday of October.
