Many holidays follow the Islamic lunar calendar and do not fall on the same date every year. One of the biggest holidays of the year is Idul Fitri which falls at the end of the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan. The date of this festival moves forward roughly 10 days each solar year. During Ramadan many shops and restaurants in Muslim areas are closed during daylight hours. It can be difficult to travel during Idul Fitri as hotels and transport are booked out in advance by locals.
