IRAN

Milad Tower, Tehran

“Tehran, the capital city of Iran, is one of the biggest cities in the world. With

more than 8 million citizens living within its cosmopolitan atmosphere, Tehran

gives you a unique chance to experience Iranian culture while finding every

modern facilities you need to enjoy your life.”

PEOPLE

“Iranians, aside from their ethnical and geographical

differences, all share hospitality and kindness. They live

with each other generally in harmony despite having

significant cultural and social contrasts. They have a

special sense of humor even during hard times.”

NATURE

“Iran has a truly remarkable environ-ment. Its four-season climate shapes and forms extraordinary landscapes ranging from coasts to mountains, forests to deserts. Temperatures can range from -10°C to 50°C. Few places on this earth can claim such a diversi-ty as Iran.”

Architecture

“Iranian art has charmed travelers from the west to the east throughout the centuries,

from Persian empirical palaces and the overwhelming beauty of their ruins to Iranian

mosques and their unique architecture and interior design. Iranian artists have con-

sciously drawn from other cultures’ innovations in arts and blended them with their

own heritages to create brilliant masterpieces throughout Iran's long history.”

&

“Handicrafts play an important role not only in Iranians

cultural history but also in the history of all of humankind.

Persian Carpets and miniatures are still highly regarded for

their beauty and intricacy all across the world. They have in-

fluenced and continue to influence many great modern artists

around the world.

Not only can they be found in museums in Iran, they can also

be found throughout all Iranian households and are regarded

as a legacy of a rich cultural tradition extending back for

many generations.”

“The music of Iran has thousands of years of history. Iranian musical instruments are

often present during traditional ceremonies. Persian poems complement the songs with

their deep meanings. Dance also accompanies these songs during events. Like other

facets of Iranian art, Iranian music is inspired by the nature and pure beauty of its

sound. You can listen to a song, close your eyes and find yourself in the middle of the

Central Desert, in the Northern Forests, floating on the blue Persian Gulf, or flying

freely in the sky as a bird.”

“Though Iranian Food is usually made using a wide variety of

vegetables with either chicken, beef, lamb, or fish, Many vege-

tarian dishes are widely available.

Iran’s wide availability of many kinds of fruits and vegetables

can be attributed to its diverse climate. Iran has hundreds of

delicious dishes and desserts that can’t be found anywhere else

in the world. The real taste of saffron, pistachio and cardamom

can be only found in Iranian ice cream.”
