Persian New Year

Thursday at 11:50 pm in Montreal time is the first day of spring. Where our mother earth finishes a full circle around sun. We celebrate the Persian New Year every year all around the world at this time. If you’re wondering which year we are at , it’s gonna be 1399! You may ask why Iran, such a historical country, should be in 1399! Yeah, it’s only after revolution that they changed our calender!!!

Any how…!

I put the link below for the ones who are interested to know more:

Hello @Ekattotii

Thank you so much for the comment. New year in Iran is the first day of spring so it indicates new life, change, and wakening up from winter. :seedling:

We visit our families, grand parents and friends.

The main dish is fish and herbal rice. We eat lots of cookies and nuts and homemade dishes.

Each item on the table is a symbol of health, wealth, prosperity and life. We put 7 things, each comes with its meaning.

It’s a family celebration and a nostalgic memory for me from the time I was still living in my country with my family. :tulip: :sunrise_over_mountains:

@SaraGuides Happy New Year!
