# Localization

The DatePicker provides options for localizing its user interface by utilizing its [`Culture`](https://www.telerik.com/aspnet-core-ui/documentation/api/kendo.mvc.ui.fluent/datepickerbuilder#culturesystemstring) property.

To apply the desired culture, add a reference to the script file before the DateRangePicker is initialized and include the desired culture in the settings of the helper.

```Razor HtmlHelper
    <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/@@progress/kendo-ui@2019.2.619/js/cultures/kendo.culture.de-DE.min.js"></script>

    @(Html.Kendo().DatePicker()
        .Name("datepicker")
        .Culture("de-DE")
    )
```

```Razor TagHelper
<kendo-datepicker name="datepicker"
                  culture="de-DE"/>
```
