Today is the birthday of Rome, also known as "Natale di Roma" in Italian, is celebrated on April 21st each year. It commemorates the founding of the city of Rome in 753 BC. According to legend, Rome was founded by Romulus, the first king of Rome, and his twin brother Remus. The story goes that they were abandoned as infants and raised by a she-wolf. As they grew older, they decided to build a city on the banks of the Tiber River.
On the day of the city's birthday, various events and festivities take place in Rome. One of the highlights is a reenactment of the ancient Roman traditions, with people dressed in traditional attire and participating in parades, processions, and historical reenactments. There are also fireworks, concerts, and cultural exhibitions throughout the city.
The birthday of Rome is not only a celebration of the city's foundation but also a way to honor its rich history and cultural heritage. It serves as a reminder of Rome's importance as the capital of the ancient Roman Empire and its significant contributions to art, architecture, law, and governance.
Happy birthday, beautiful Roma.
