One of the main ambassadors of the New Year holidays is the tangerine. This fruit is tightly associated with the holidays, with Christmas and the New Year. It is the tangerine that brings festive coziness to the house, which is lacking in the period of cold weather. Also, tangerines give a lot of vitamins to strengthen the immune system.
tangerines have vitamin C. For cold countries where there is not as much sunlight in winter as in summer, tangerines are essentially a substitute for sunshine.
Tangerines supposedly appeared in Iran 1000 years ago

According to another legend, tangerines were first bred in Japan.
