There are many interesting customs in different countries for celebrating the new year. In Spain and Portugal, people gather just before midnight on New Year's Eve and select twelve grapes from a large bunch. As the clock turns to the new year, each person eats twelve grapes and wishes good luck to everyone else. The twelve grapes are symbols of the twelve months of the year. In Iran, New- Year’s Day is called No-Ruz. It begins on 21st March and lasts for thirteen days. No-Ruz is a happy time because winter is ending and spring is beginning.
