What is Nooruz and how is it celebrated in Kyrgyzstan?

Nooruz is more than just a holiday, it marks the beginning of the New Year according to the solar calendar and symbolizes renewal, spring, and new life. In Kyrgyzstan, it is celebrated on March 21, the day of the spring equinox, when nature awakens and winter finally gives way to warmth.
