'What's Nowruz and how Iranians celebrate it?' "Nowruz - which means New Day in Farsi - marks the start of Spring. Its origins are ancient - believed to have been started by Zoroastrians around 3000 years ago - but now it is an important part of modern lives. But what exactly is Nowruz? BBC Persian's Sahar Zand سحر زند visited Little Persia in London to explain how her family celebrate the Persian New Year."

What an honor to have been invited to the White House for this year’s Nowruz celebration. The first Iranian female to perform here as a singer. Islamic Regime couldn’t stop that from happening 💚🕊️❤️ I hope this opens many doors for the talented women of Iran to be able to share their art with the rest of the world and sing and dance freely in their own country one day soon. عیدت مبارک، نوروزتون پیروز 💚🕊️❤️ | Rana Mansour
