Should I go for Easter week?
I'm going to Istanbul. The numbers fall from April 16 to April 22, please tell me if it’s worth going these days, it turns out Easter week in Orthodox (Easter 15) and Eid al-Adha in Muslim, when many establishments are closed for a week. One guide advises visiting during the celebration. But I doubt whether it will be convenient for me? Will museums, cathedrals, transport work??? Who was at that time please answer urgently need to decide on a ticket. Thanks

so I don’t understand where you read about Eid al-Adha?))) he is always in the fall)))
Although there are Orthodox in Istanbul, but not so many that something is closed because of them. And we don't have everything closed on Easter.
besides, it will be interesting to visit the Churches of Istanbul for services.

I also can’t understand what the Easter week and Eid al-Adha have to do with it ??? The holiday is celebrated 70 days after the celebration of Uraza Bayram, that is, on the 10th day of the twelfth month of the Muslim lunar calendar. It lasts for 3-4 days and in 2012 falls on October 26!!! Have a good rest!!!

Well done Pers! Eid al-Fitr is a holiday of breaking the fast after a 30-day Muslim fast of the holy month of Ramadan. Kurban Bayram - the feast of sacrifice, is celebrated as Pers wrote. It is in Ramadan that there are certain restrictions on the work of institutions. Have a good rest everyone!
