December 11, 2021 Karren Gelb

Iran (Persian: ایران‎ Irān [ʔiːˈɾɒːn] ( listen)), also known as Persia (/ˈpɜːrʒə/), officially the Islamic Republic of Iran (Persian: جمهوری اسلامی ایران‎ Jomhuri-ye Eslāmi-ye Irān ( listen)), is a sovereign state in Western Asia. With over 81 million inhabitants, Iran is the world's 18th-most-populous country. Comprising a land area of 1,648,195 km (636,372 sq mi), it is the second-largest country in the Middle East and the 17th-largest in the world. Iran is bordered to the northwest by Armenia and the Republic of Azerbaijan, to the north by the Caspian Sea, to the northeast by Turkmenistan, to the east by Afghanistan and Pakistan, to the south by the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman, and to the west by Turkey and Iraq. The country's central location in Eurasia and Western Asia, and its proximity to the Strait of Hormuz, give it geostrategic importance. Tehran is the country's capital and largest city, as well as its leading economic and cultural center.

Naqsh-e Jahan Square

Reviewed By DominicDeBurca - Dunmore East, Ireland

Definitely one of the highlights of my entire Iranian itinerary. Just loved this place and the wonderful atmosphere (particularly at night) when a lot of local families come to socialize and have outdoor picnics or take a ride around the square in one of the many horse-drawn carriages.

Old City

Reviewed By Faezeh94 - Isfahan, Iran

Separation of the modern urban and traditional texture of Yazd city is the main distinctive feature of this city with other cities. Alley of calm and silent with kind people in the traditional texture of Yazd is one of the most prominent beauties of this city.

Kang Village

Reviewed By Parsa871 - Bologna, Italy

The village is located 40 km from Mashhad. It's an stepped village with very vernacular architecture. They are two accommodation places with licence in the village. One ecolodge and one homestay. Many of my European friends stayed at Ivan Kang Homestay. I suggest you roaming in the historic fabric of the village and visiting the waterfall close to the village. People are a little bit inward and do not take photos from the women and children, however they are absolutely photogenic!
