Notable celebrations and festivals in Jordan

Arbor Day is a less trivial holiday that Jordan celebrates on January 15. The celebration can also be referred to as Earth Day or Nature Day. Arbor Day is a three-day-long holiday that was first introduced in 1939. People plant trees on this holiday, so even kings and nobles take shovels and plant palm trees on Arbor Day. The palm tree is one of the most popular trees in Jordan because it is mentioned in the Quran. Dates, the fruit of the palm tree, are the main food during the fasting in the Holy Month of Ramadan. By the way, this holiday has not only religious meaning. The thing is, only 1% of Jordan’s territory has vegetation! The government takes steps to improve the situation, and local people help to make their country greener. … Open
