Kazakh holidays

International Nauryz holiday

Nauryz is official holiday in the Republic of Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenia , Azerbaijan and Tadjikistan. During the course of history Nauryz became a symbolic Kazakh New Year in Kazakhstan. Nowadays it is one of the most favourite holidays in Kazakhstan. Kazakhs also often refer to Nauryz as “Ulystin uly kuni” which means “the great day of the nation”. Nauryz remains also a strong tradition in the countries of Central Asia as well as in Afghanistan, Iran and Azerbaijan. The present day name of Nauryz derives from the Persian Novruz translated as a new day.

Nauryz has many unique features. Various kinds of competitions were included in the festival program, such as horse races and hand-to-hand combats between stalwart fellows. The “Aitys” (a contest of two or more improvising folk poet-musicians) is a joyful competition of wit and poetic skill. And of course there were many songs, dances and games. One of the bright traditions that we meet in Abai’s manuscript is the “Nauryz-bata” or Nauryz blessing. To receive a blessing on this day from the lips of aksakals (elderly) and aje (women of old age) is considered a big honour and sign of kindness

Kazakh custom.

The ancient custom of Kazakh people. Anyone who comes to the house, it will not release the Kazakh as guest did not taste the food. Auyz ment of and means "to taste, to taste the food." At any time, regardless of their sitting at table in the house or not, Kazakhs put on tablecloth meal or just bread and ask the guest to taste. "Breakfast not leave, and dinner, do not wait," - said the Kazakhs. According to tradition, entered the house at breakfast time must sit down and have breakfast with the hosts. Otherwise hear a joke: "husband left" - women, "the wife will run away" - men.

When you travel, on a long journey, everyone should try before leaving treats in the house. Taking your children to the army, the parents gather at the table, that is, wonderful tradition continues today.

Kazakh tradition

Shashu – during the joyous event (wedding, matchmaking, etc.) on heroes of the occasion throw a variety of sweets, money. Guests will gladly collect them.

Rejoice – because they grew beautiful, intelligent, decent daughter, for which you will not be ashamed; sad – because they do not want to give his daughter in marriage, because everyone thinks she is still a child. The girl matchmakers come around 5-7 people (odd number), and even more. Among them: “bas quda” (main matchmaker), “qudalar” (matchmakers) and friend of the groom (here as a counselor, a witness). In the northern and central regions of Kazakhstan the man alone go for a girl. Matchmakers usually come in the evening. Since their arrival starts: games, songs, entertainment, tradition of the “Kade” (gifts, presentation). Close relatives of the girls officially invite matchmakers in the day to visit.
