Lebaran tradition

Lebaran or Idul Fitri is the popular name for Eid al-Fitr in Indonesia and is one of the major national holiday in the country. Lebaran holiday officially lasts for two days in the Indonesian calendar, although the government usually declares a few days before and after the Lebaran as a bank holiday. Many individuals or families, especially Muslims take paid time off from their workplace during these days.

Every Lebaran, almost all of Indonesia's families do the 'mudik'. Mudik is like visits our families and usually in other city or region. This year, lebaran will be on 29th July and I will do mudik with my family. I will visit my grandfather and my grandmother at Kutoarjo Central Java. I hope my holiday this year will be fun.
