Abstract: Culture and language are closely related. So integrating culture in the EFL curriculum has been widely supported by many scholars and educators belonging to applied linguistics and anthropology and other disciplines. For this, foreign language learning is often foreign culture learning. This study sets out during the academic year 2021-2022 to explore both English as foreign language teachers’ and students’ perspectives towards the importance of culture teaching. To this end, two questionnaires adapted from Sercu and el (2005) aimed to investigate teachers’ perspectives towards culture teaching; the researchers tried to expand this study and investigate both teacher’ and students’ attitudes, practices, and familiarity with the target culture. Regarding the importance of teaching culture, the results revealed that both teachers and students share positive attitudes. However, culture is still ignored in the classroom activities and disregarded in the curriculum.
