Indonesians celebrating Eid al-Fitr holiday leave, in Kelimutu National Park, Flores Island, East Nusa Tenggara province, Indonesia

After the month of Ramadan is Eid al-Fitr week — “Holiday of Breaking the Fast” — when public servants take leave. On Flores island, we visited popular Kelimutu National Park on Monday, April 24, 2023, one of the Muslim Eid holidays. Flores has 1.5 million people—60% Roman Catholic and 40% Muslim. Catholicism's prominence on Flores island comes from its colonization by Portugal in the east and early 1900s support by the Dutch in the west.
