Organized by the Ji-Tarhan group, the decorations are arranged to stress the venerable Persian traditions and help convey the true message of Noruz and love toward nature.
Nowrooz - Haft Sin
The Haft Seen decorations include seven items that begin with the Persian letter “seen,” which is pronounced in the same way as “s” in English. They include sib (apple), samanu (a sweet pudding made from wheat seedlings), seer (garlic), sekkeh (coins), sumac (a spice), serkeh (vinegar) and sabzeh (green sprouted seeds).
