June 2nd we celebrate Italian Republic Day, the day which remembers the national referendum of 1946 when the Italian population decided to become a Republic.
Traditionally to mark the occasion, a military parade marches down Via dei Fori Imperiali (Rome) each year with all branches of Italy's armed forces represented.
It's a great celebration that culminates with a colorful airshow over the historic center when the Frecce Tricocolori, a team of 10 pilots in fighter planes, paint the sky in green, white, and red, the color of the Italian flag.
If you're looking for a vacation rental in the area, we suggest staying in these charming apartments:
