Public holidays in Indonesia

People across Turkey on Tuesday celebrated the first day of Eid al-Fitr with many mosques packed for early morning prayers and people hosting friends and families at their homes.

The nine-day-long Eid al-Fitr holiday is expected to enliven Turkey's economy, with tourism players anticipating approximately 5 million people to travel during this period, creating a financial turnover of 10 billion Turkish Liras ($1.6 billion).

As the nine-day long Eid al-Fitr holiday approaches, Turkish travel agencies have been anxiously waiting for Greece to start the visa facilitation program for thousands of Turkish tourists making reservations in Aegean islands.
