Happy Nowruz 2024: The Persian word ‘Nowruz’ is a combination of two words, where ‘now’ means new and ‘ruz’ means day; hence Nowruz means “new day.” Nowruz—the Persian New Year—is a 3,000-year-old spring festival celebrated widely by millions of people around the globe. The roots of this ancient festival lie in Zoroastrianism. Nowruz marks the beginning of the Iranian Solar Hijri calendar and falls typically between March 19 and 21.
The festival is generally observed in countries along the ancient Silk Roads, including Afghanistan, Azerbaijan, India, Iran, Iraq, Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Turkey, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan with a lot of festivities.
