Hi, every one in Jeddah.

So, the EID holiday is coming. This is the first EID for us. We will have about a week off. We would like to experience this special festival. Is it possible we join the locals? Any places we should go in Jeddah or around? Or any special events will be on? Special tradiontion festive TV programmes at home?

Please kindly guide us. Millions thanks in advanced.
