Other Holidays

In addition there are two moveable feasts based on the Muslim calendar – Orozo Ait, the day of Sacrifice and Kurman Ait, which marks the end of Ramadan.

If a holiday falls on a weekend then parliament often decides to make the Friday or the Monday a non-working day instead.

(This list is important for those wanting to cross Torugart and Irkeshtam because the pass is closed at weekends and on holidays.)
