Schon Urlaubspläne für den Sommer? Vielleicht in die Türkei? Dann sollte man auf keinen Fall Kappadokien auslassen. Da steppt nämlich der Bär, und der heisst: Sünnet Düğünü.
captivatingcappadocia.com/cappadocia-circumcision-party/"This is worthy of a celebration. And oh how we celebrated! Family, friends, and neighbors gathered around this boy and partied late into the night! Complete with dancing, singing, eating, and gift-giving, this tradition had the look and feel of awedding reception.
As you can see from the video we were in a very fancy reception hall in a cave with approximately two hundred guests. There were snacks and drinks as well as a full meal of chicken and rice, salad, watermelon, and dessert. Entertainment was provided by hired musicians and folk dancers.
Other circumcision celebrations take place in outdoor garden settings without a meal and music is provided by a DJ. Still others commence this rite at their home, barricading the roads as they take their dancing to the streets and sit at tables full of food provided by neighbors and friends."
