Helligdage i Gambia

Gambias historie

Gambia, officielt kendt som Republikken Gambia, er det mindste land på det afrikanske fastland. Beliggende langs Gambias flod, er landets historie rig på forskellige kulturer og påvirkninger. Det var en del af Mali-imperiet i de tidlige århundreder, før det blev koloniseret af briterne i slutningen af det 19. århundrede. Gambia opnåede uafhængighed i 1965 og har siden bestræbt sig på at bevare sin omfattende kulturelle arv og historiske steder.

Hvorfor gambianere elsker deres helligdage

Gambianere har en dyb værdsættelse for deres offentlige helligdage, da de ser dem som vitale muligheder for at fejre national kultur, historie og præstationer. Disse lejligheder markeres med livlige parader, musik, dans og traditionelle festligheder, der bringer samfund sammen. Helligdage fungerer som et spejl af Gambias rige kulturelle tæppe og giver gambianerne en chance for at udtrykke national stolthed og enhed.
