The name Mărțișor is a diminutive of March (Martie in Romanian) but also the name of the little talismans with red and white strings, offered as gifts during this holiday. It is believed that people who wear the red and white string will enjoy a prosperous and healthy year. From March 1st to March 8th, when Romania celebrates Women’s Day, everything revolves around these tiny gifts. To learn more about Romania, please click the below.
