Newroz as celebrated by Kurds
Newroz is the Kurdish celebration of Nowruz, the arrival of spring and the new year in Kurdish culture, observed in many parts of Eurasia that are historically influenced by Persian culture and Zoroastrianism. At Newroz, Kurds celebrate the victory of the legendary Kaveh the Blacksmith over the tyrant Zahhak; in the modern era, the holiday has become associated with resistance to Turkish rule. These Kurds were photographed at a celebration of Newroz in Bisaran, Iran, in 2017.
