As announced by Visit Bucharest, this year, the Union of Armenians in Romania presents the 7th edition of the Armenian Street Festival, organized in premiere inside the Botanical Garden in Bucharest. The place is not new for the international fans of Wednesday, the famous Netflix series, as some of the scenes were shot here. So, if you decide to come to the festival, you’ll also have the opportunity to recognize some of the places from the series, but not only that.

On August 26 and 27, Armenian culture and traditions are celebrated with concerts, music and dances, food, good mood, and Armenian, Romanian and ethnic minority artists from Romania.

The 7th edition of the Armenian Street Festival – Festivalul Strada Armeneasca brings two days full of unique events for the public of all ages. For two days, the Bucharest Botanical Garden will host ten live music concerts by artists from Armenia and Romania, two DJ sets, a craft fair, and participants will also enjoy international gastronomy, coffee on the sand, exhibitions, a library in nature, made by Ararat Publishing House and Armenian dance workshops, traditional stone sculpture (Khachkar).

For over twenty years, the „Teryan Cultural Center” in Yerevan has been involved in a wide range of activities for the preservation and dissemination of cultural, literary, educational, ethnographic, scientific, research and spiritual values; promotes the preservation and spread of spiritual and cultural values, encourages the development of Armenian culture, organizes and conducts courses in tailoring, manual work, embroidery, carpet weaving, as well as several other crafts.

The festival opens its doors between 12:00 and 22:45 each day.

The doctor rushed to the scene. When asked what happened, as she was lying on the back, recovering, she said she had seen angels.

“I saw angels, I saw people flying around the hall, and I fell.”

She had only a minute left to recover and made her final attempt at 110kg. She succeeded, and Cotruta’s performance meant that Romania was on the podium in all the first four events of the Championships, three for women and one for men.

Beyond any mystic explanation of the event, especially as we are during Romania’s Easter celebrations, there could also be a scientific explanation. It is known that faints occur when people try to lift heavy weights or make a tremendous effort. Despite their consistent training, heavy lifters reach their limits when trying to complete their lifting with massive weights.

On the other hand, reporting on angel appearance is not new, and until we understand entirely the energies surrounding the real world, we can’t know for sure. Andreea brought another medal to Romania, which most weightlifting fans will remember about this competition.

Romania had the highest European finisher at those World Championships in all the three lightest weight categories for women – Adriana Pana at 45kg, Cambei at 49kg and Andreea Cotruta at 55kg – as well as a world record victory for Loredana Toma at 71kg.

The interesting fact about this game is that in Armenia spectators are allowed inside the stadiums. Thus, by having the active encouragements of their fans, the Armenian players entered the field very determined.

Armenia scored first, in 56′, when Spertsyan beat Romanian goalkeeper. Romania equalized and even took the lead after Cicaldau scored twice in 62′ and 72′. Then it happened something which unbalanced the Romanian team and the game.

Romanian striker Puscas committed a foul in 78′ and he received a red card. Immediately after, Armenia scored a goal from a suspected offside position. Haroyan beat Nita, the Romanian goalkeeper, in 86′.

In 89′ one of the Romanian players committed a foul in the penalty area and Barseghyan scored from the penalty kick. 3-2 for Armenia, who gets 9 points in 3 games.

Romania has only 3 points and the perspectives are not good. While Germany is the favorite of the group and Armenia has already got 6 more pints, the chances for Romania to qualify for the World Cup by occupying the second place in the group are very low.

Mirel Radoi, the coach of the Romanian National football team, told the Romanian journalists after the game that it takes into account resigning from his position.
