Philippine Independence Day happens on June 12 every year. It's a holiday where Filipinos celebrate Independence from Spain, and America.
The public holiday celebrates Philippine history, freedom and culture. They hang up the flag in most public places and take a day off.
During Independence Day, they remember the amazing heroes who fought for independence against Spain. They fought for freedom against Spanish rule right at the end of the 19th century.
The two most famous heroes of this time were Andres Bonifacio and José Rizal. Both are considered national heroes by different groups.
José Rizal was a medical student and writer who spoke over 20 languages. His writings and books inspired Filipino nationalism (support for your nation).
Andres Bonifacio was the “Father of the Philippine Revolution.” He led a lot of successful campaigns against Spain to gain independence for the Philippines.
The Philippine flag has a very unique look to it. It has three golden stars and a sun on a red, blue and white background:
The three stars represent the Philippines’ three major island regions — Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.
The sun and its eight rays represent the eight major provinces that took part in the revolution.
