Celebration of the National Day of Egypt in Serbia reveals why Egypt is considered as „The mother of civilization"

-



    Ancient Egyptian antiquities displayed in virtual reality technique, Um Kalthoum’s „Enta Omri“ played on oud, Egyptian folklore music and dance, and the famous delicious Egyptian cuisine were just a small piece  of an outstanding atmosphere during the celebration of the National Day of Egypt held in the National Museum in Belgrade.


„Let’s Learn about Serbia“  attended the ceremony and will show you some photos.




   When we walked in the Museum, the Embassy’s staff with H.E. Ambassador Amr Aljowaily warmly welcomed us and we immediately realized why Egyptians are considered as the most hospitable nation in the world.  




The Egyptians and the Egyptian Embassy as well, enjoy great respect in Serbia and therefore we were not surprised when we saw at the ceremony a large number of Serbian government officials, Serbian Parliament Speaker, government ministers, respected university professors, members of the Islamic Community of Serbia,  distinguished individuals ...





In his opening speech, H.E. Amr Aljowaily pointed that both Serbia and Egypt have many common things and that there are many ideas that can develop even better relations between the two nations cherishing brotherhood.

   The star of the program was definitely a dance group „Reda“ from Egypt which showed remarkable talent and skills in Egyptian folk dances. The breathtaking moment  of the event was when a well-known artist Shadi Shamel started playing the most popular Egyptian melodies on  Arabic music instrument  „oud“ including the „ Egyptian evergreen song „Enta Omri“.

                                       Shadi Shamel with oud made an audience speechless 

                                                                         Reda




       A guide from the museum kindly informed us that some Egyptian antiquities, such as the Egyptian mummy, have already been set up at the National Museum in Belgrade and that we can see them exhibited on the second floor.

In the end, every participant was able to see the most famous Egyptian antiquities from all over the Egypt in 3D-Virtual reality dimension.






       We sincerely wish once again Happy National Day to the Embassy of the Arab Republic of Egypt in Serbia and to all Egyptians from all around the world.

Easter Greetings in Serbian language

    Serbian language is so wealthy that we have hundreds of ways to congratulate the religious feast days, especially the Easter, which is mostly contributed by many dialects in the Serbian language. For the example, there are many ways to wish "Happy Easter" in Serbian: 1) Srećan Uskrs! 2) Sretan Uskrs! 3) Srećan Vaskrs! 4) Sretan Vaskrs! .... or just use simple greeting "Happy feast" - "Srećni praznik". If you use, any of these phrases, surely that you wont make any mistake but the problem is that is not usual greeting. The most common Easter greeting in Serbia is "Hristos vaskrse" (Christ is risen). The reply on that greeting should to be  "Vaistinu vaskrse"   (Indeed, he is risen). Even you use "Hristos vaskrse" there are also many ways to say it : 1) Hristos VOskrEse!    reply : Vaistinu VOSkrEse! 2) Hristos VAskrese!    reaply: Vaistinu VAskrese! 3) Hristos VAskrSE    reply: Vasitinu VAskrSE!      ...

What is a " Red letter " day?

"The red letter" day ("Crveno slovo" ) it is a term in the Serbian language that marks the day of the great Christian feast. This term comes from the ancient Serbian tradition, when many centuries ago in Christian calendars, the biggest holidays were written by red ink (other feasts are written by standard black ink). This tradition has remained even today.    If you visit any church or monastery in Serbia and if you buy a religious, Orthodox calendar, you will see many feasts written in red. For this reason, the day of that kind of feast  is called "the day of the red letter" .  Currently, Serbian Orthodox Church recognizes 38 "the red letters" days (without Sundays because Sunday is always written by red) But why it's important? This is important because of the cultural patterns that are respected in rural parts of Serbia.  According to the Serbian tradition, "the day of the red letter" as the day of the great religious ...

Let's learn what is meze? A Serbian version of fast food for the dearest guests

-
Image
    Before any explanation, we would like to point out that the Serbian version of "meze" should by no means be equated with what is meant by "meze" in Turkish national cuisine. Also, "meze" in Serbia is not an appetizer either, because after "meze" neither main dish nor dessert follows. To put it simply, "meze" is a fast-prepared food for guests who do not have enough time for a traditional lunch but have enough time to eat something in a short amount of time, even in small quantities, because it is contrary to the Serbian tradition for the guests to leave Serbian house without being fed.  "Meze" does not include long cooked foods, but includes foods that are quickly cut, served and put on the table. With "meze" plates are never placed, not even a cutlery. . Meze is served in one, two, at most three plates (if there are more plates, it will become lunch, not "meze"). But the essence of the ...
