Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha are the two major Islamic holidays celebrated in Syria. Eid al-Fitr marks the end of Ramadan, the month of fasting, while Eid al-Adha commemorates the willingness of Ibrahim to sacrifice his son as an act of obedience to God. Both holidays are celebrated with family gatherings, festive meals, and the giving of gifts and charity to those in need. Visitors during these festive occasions can witness the country's rich Islamic traditions and customs.
