Iranian Zoroastrian Ancient Mid Winter Sadeh Festival
A young Iranian Zoroastrian woman wears a white dress and carries fire in a torch while participating in the ancient mid-winter Sadeh festival in southern Tehran, Iran, on January 29, 2025. The Sadeh festival, a mid-winter celebration in Iran, displays Zoroastrian tradition and cultural heritage. Held 50 days before Nowruz, the Persian New Year, it symbolizes the triumph of light over darkness. Bonfires illuminate the night sky as Iranian Zoroastrians honor fire as a symbol of life and purification. (Photo by Morteza Nikoubazl/NurPhoto)
