Jeshen

Jeshen is a festival that is celebrated with great enthusiasm in Afghanistan. It's a national holiday, so office buildings, schools, banks, and many businesses will be closed. There will be a military parade as well as a presidential address to the country.

Many people dress up in native costumes, and traditional dances are performed at festivals all around the nation. Afghans celebrate by eating traditional meals, drinking, and listening to music that expresses their culture.

Many Afghan residents visit art galleries or attend poetry readings on Independence Day to honor their country's culture. Many citizens were prohibited from participating in cultural events during the Civil War era. Many people are increasingly turning to cultural events as a form of expression in order to draw greater attention to them.
