Thanks for sharing your report and amazing pictures!
I just returned from a 3-week trip through Iran myself a few days ago, and can't wait to go back :) |
Thanks so much for sharing. Your photos are amazing, and I especially love the photos of people since you get such a feel of the place from that. I just need to get more confidence when I'm traveling to take them and to introduce myself to get such shots. Iran has been on my list for a while and hope to get there in the next 10 years.

Thanks, rankourabu:). Yes, the Niayesh was a great place, a lot of character and my favorite hotel for the trip.
Cheers, Eric:). Only a short flight from where I live, so figured I had to get there sometime:). Thank you, SgtRyan:). You'll have to add it to your bucket list, surprising easy to travel around and the people were very friendly and welcoming too. Thanks, durberville:). There's a few Jewish people still in Iran, and I actually saw a guy biking along in Isfahan wearing a Kippa. I don't think sexual orientation is on your passport either:). I love Persian food but was wondering if any of the food got your stomach disturbed? The Iranian parliament has a minimum legal quota of having at least one elected Jewish Iranian as a member of parliament. Iran still has some religious, ethnic and linguistic diversity with, amongst others, members of all the major monotheistic Abrahamic religions and the Zoroastrian precursor represented; and there are ethnic minorities of Armenian, Arab, Baluchi, Azeri and other lingo-ethnic/religious backgrounds beyond that there. [Iran is also one of the world's largest hosts for refugees, in largest part from Afghanistan.] Even some of the most fundamentalist mullahs there are proud of Iran being a more diverse and hospitable place historically than say some of its near neighbors across the water. My American relatives that have been to Iran or lived there had great experiences visiting and didn't have any worries about being ethnic/religious minorities there at any point in the past ten years at least. |

Nice trip report.

Fantastic. Thanks.
I would like to go one day if I can. Are there a lot of foreign tourists? |

Really wish I could travel there without the guide restriction.....oh well, one day.
|
Really incredible report, I've wanted to go to Iran for a long time and now want to even more.
|
