Google Doodle celebrates Nowruz 2025
Google is celebrating Nowruz – Persian New Year – with a special Doodle designed by guest artist Pendar Yousefi.
The day implies the beginning of Persian new year and has been observed for over 3,000 years.
Originating from Zoroastrianism, “Nowruz” signifies “new day” in Persian. It is typically 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.
In 2010, United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) added Nowruz to its Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, while the United Nations recognises March 21 as International Nowruz Day.
Preparations for Nowruz start weeks in advance. People clean their homes, buy new clothes, and prepare a special table called Haft-Seen.
The table includes symbolic seven items like wheat sprouts, apples, and garlic. Families gather around it when the New Year arrives.
