    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     RVCFOTO enjoys taking photographs of the beautiful, diverse parades that the Big Apple has to offer. She says she 'loved the music and the spirit of the people marching. It's nice to see that we can come together despite all the political problems with Iran and the US.' The elaborate costumes and spirited dancing were her favorite part of the parade.
    - jne2013, CNN iReport producer

    The 9th Annual Persian parade took place in NYC's Madison Ave on Sunday April 15th. This parade draws a large cheering crowd of Iranian Americans proud to showcase their Persian culture.

    This colorful parade consists of floats, dancers, flags and music. At the end of the parade the crowd gathers at the Madison Square Park to sample Iranian specialties from vendors and dance to the latest Iranian popular music.
