День Перемоги 2019 in Kharkov city : Victory Day / Memorial in Ukraine (9 May)

Victory Day is a national holiday in Ukraine on May 9. It is a day to remember victory over the Nazi regime during World War II. If you go through past photos of Ukraine's victory day you will understand and appreciate the growth Ukraine acquired over the years. For some, it is just a celebration while for some it is a day of bittersweet memories.
