Happy Independence Day Peru!!! Here are 24 facts to celebrate this incredible nation. Peruâs Independence Day or Fiestas Patrias is celebrated on July 28. Peruvian independence was first declared in 1821 by the Argentine liberator, General JosÃ© de San MartÃ­n but absolute independence was not actually gained until 1824.
As Peruâs Independence Day approaches the whole country paints itself red and white. Flags fly everywhere since the pride of a nation that is so rich in cultural diversity as ours requires a grand fiesta to celebrate the day in which we became free and independent. Today we remember when the Liberator Don JosÃ© de San MartÃ­n proclaimed the independence of Peru and we became a free republic instead of a colony of the Spanish Crown. For this reason today is very important in Peru. Throughout the country there will be an infinity of celebrations. Limaâs Picarones (Photo: Giancarlo Gallardo)
