Minimal Yalda
Yalda is a Persian festival meaning birth, and it is a celebration of the winter solstice. On Yalda night, Iranians had to gather in the safety of groups of friends and relatives around a square table called Korsi and find ways to pass the long night together in good company.
Watermelon is one of the main symbols of Yalda, and it represents the sun. It is believed if you eat watermelon at Yalda, you won’t be hurt by the diseases and coldness of the coming winter.
