20 - 22 July we will celebrate Kurban Eid!

Makpal

This is one of the very important holidays for whole Muslim countries. Actually, we have 2 Eids. The first Eid is held after the holy month of Ramadan in which Muslims fast for a whole month. This is the second Eid, where it is mandatory to give food (mainly sheep meat) to those who are needed (people with low income, big families). 

As for me - I like this holiday because during these 2 days I have a chance to see all my family. During Eid time people usually invite each other, gather, pray and eat together. 

My country is not 100% Muslim, but Kazakh people usually try to follow Muslim religious rules (especially celebrating Muslim holidays).
