During the 4 day festival of sacrifice os Islam World. First day has a different meaning. For example we sacrifice. We visit cemetery. Our family has a good time.  The most important preparation is cleaning the entire house before the festival. A lot of traditional food is prepared for family and relatives.
 Last festival I and my cousins went to cinema and shopping. we went to see the movie "300". It was very enjoyable.   In short, our festival is very beautiful for everybody. Festivals means brotherhood, togetherness and friendship.

During the four days festival of sacrifice. We clean our house before the festival. We prepare candies and money for children. We prepare food and special deserts. Especially our desert is Turkish Baklava.  First day if we have grandparents at home. We wait because our guests come. But if we haven't got grandfather and grandmother we go to visit our relatives. We wear the newest clothes or the most beautiful clothes. We visit our old relatives. We kiss their hands and we ask about their health. We speak about how the life is going these days. The most important thing is sacrifice. We prepare the meats. We give the meat to the poor people. This represents togetherness.   The second important thing is "eid prayer" for men. The mosque is full of men for this day. They start the happily.   After the first day we call our people or relatives who live abroad.   In short The Festival os sacrifice makes people come together.
