[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Iranians celebrate their New Year on 21 March every year. Before the New Year comes they visit the cemeteries, holy shrines and religious places. When visiting cemeteries, in fact, they remember those of relations passed away. This is a tribute to their social and family connections. During this period for almost two weeks all the places to be visited are decorated with flowers and illuminations.
