The International Day of Yoga In the USA

It may sound a bit surprising, but the International Day of Yoga on June 21 is also the summer solstice in the United States.

The festival was inaugurated by the UN in 2015 and the festival is popular. Thousands of people practicing yoga travel to New York, and other cities yearly on this day. There they gather at Times Square to mark the occasion by taking part in a free class held in the city’s iconic heart.
