Kandil Simidi is a bread ring decorated with sesame seeds which are shared with relatives and neighbor during the Islamic holy nights Kandil. There are five kandils in a year, and one that just passed by this past December 22/23 is the Mevlid Kandili - the birth of prophet Mohammad. The day is usually celebrated by a sermon, remembrance of the Prophet's life and mission, gift giving and a feast. Sounds familiar right? 😉 This holy night is also celebrated in Indonesia, my birth country under the name Maulid Nabi. I heard it caused quite the traffic jam with people trying to go back to their home town out of Jakarta for both Christmas and Maulid Nabi (which does not fall on the same date every year) 😅 A photo posted by Food & Travel ❤️ (@girleatworld) on Dec 25, 2015 at 1:07am PST Share This Link Copy ← Use Arrow Keys → 11 Kandil Simidi Bread Rings in Istanbul, Turkey Previous Next Start Slideshow Travel InspirationInstagramFood NewsTravelFood Trends
