Doha: In line with Qatari folklore, the Qatar Diabetes Association (QDA) organized on Tuesday a wonderful evening for children to celebrate Garangao Night at the association’s building in Al Montazah.

Garangao Night is one of the most important popular Ramadan customs in Qatar and the Gulf society and comes on the night of the fourteenth of Ramadan to celebrate the completion of half a month of holy Ramadan.

A large number of children participated in the event, wearing traditional costumes and singing special folk songs that brought back happy memories of the past. Crafts and artistic activities as well as folk games were also part of the Garangao celebration.

The festive atmosphere of the heritage has added joy and happiness to the hearts of the children. It has formed an enjoyable educational experience for them as they learned about the beautiful days experienced by children in the past.
