The Mountains of Freedom
Kurdistan, a cultural region that spans several countries, is known for its impressive mountainous landscapes. Kurds often call their mountains “their only friends” because they have historically symbolized protection and independence.
A rich musical tradition
Kurdish music is characterized by deep emotions and tells stories of love, freedom and resistance. Instruments such as the saz (long-necked lute) and the daff (frame drum) are central components of traditional Kurdish music and culture.
