The Head of the Year
22 march 2024
"Жыл басы" (translated to "The Head of the Year") typically refers to the first day of the Kazakh New Year, or the celebration of the beginning of the new year based on the traditional lunar calendar. This term is often associated with the celebration of Nauryz, which marks the arrival of spring and is considered a symbol of renewal, growth, and harmony.
The celebration is deeply rooted in the cultural traditions of Kazakhstan and many other Central Asian countries, and it is a time when people come together to celebrate the arrival of a new year with family gatherings, traditional food, music, and dance. Nauryz is not only a time for cultural expression but also for reinforcing community ties and embracing hope for the future.
