Sizdeh Bedar, Dodging the 13th day of NowRuz
On the thirteenth day of the NowRuz (Persian new year), which also marks the end of the Nowruz break for
the school children,
families leave their houses and head for the outdoors where they eat, play games,
and celebrate a happy and
healthy holiday season.
This tradition is called Seezdah Bedar (seezdah means thirteen) which in English
translates to "getting rid of
thirteen" or "Dodging the 13th day of the new year". This fun and exciting outing involves all family members and is intended
to end the holiday season on a
relaxing and positive note. The concept of avoiding the number thirteen is mainly
to symbolize the will and power to deal with all evil in the new year.
