On August 3, a number of countries around the world celebrate Watermelon Day. For the first time, this holiday began to be celebrated in the United States, although watermelons came to North America very late - in the 16th century with the arrival of colonists. Africa is considered the homeland of this melon culture, in Europe they were familiar with it back in the days of Ancient Rome, and watermelons came to Russia between the 7th and 14th centuries.
