Iran is one of the earth’s final frontiers. It’s a country little visited by western travellers in recent years, yet it has been at the centre of world affairs for millennia. I wanted to take a peek “behind the veil” of modern-day Iran. What I discovered was a complex, incredibly hospitable people living in a much-misunderstood country at the heart of a troubled region. My journey takes me from the bustle of Tehran, via the Valley of the Assassins to ancient cities unchanged since Marco Polo first entered them eight centuries ago. But this isn’t just a journey through an ancient landscape. It’s a journey in search of one of the world’s least known religious sects ... the ancient Fire Worshippers Of Yazd.

I am Iranian and a Zoroastrian. I have lived in the US for over 50 years (since I was 9) and have always maintained the main teachings of Zarathustra and tried to teach the same to my children. Good thoughts, Good words and Good deeds. The main pillars of our religion. But, It's sad to have my people persecuted and marginalized in their own country. Despite the three main religions borrowing heavily from Zoroastrianism, they do the most evil acts towards themselves and others. May someday people learn to respect others regardless of their religion, color, nationality, heritage, etc...

It's a religion that moves with the times and is not stuck in some ancient thought process. What is accepted now may not have been 2000 years ago, and thus adjustments are made to advance one's acceptance, so long as this process is not used to hurt others or gain self benefits...

My Brother, may I ask you a question? Do you feel your nation was better off under the Shahs. The Shah of Iran in the 70s. While conservative extremist may have felt Iran was becoming too westernized, surely many aspects of this were better than what Iran has endured now, through the Ayatollahs? I'm not American My Brother, I'm just curious. Peace Be With You. My Best. Out.

@A R : What you need to do My Brother, is learn how the U.S. uses and manipulates other nations and peoples and use that against them. Killing Americans only, makes martyrs out of them, and actually, only, makes them stronger. The average, American is brainwashed by their leadership and greedy, souless, capitalist who will do anything to profit off of the misery of others. Your best strategy is to learn to be SMARTER THAN THEM! OK? Peace Be With You. My Best. Out.

During my last visit to Persepolis in February 2002 I was fortunate enough to have the whole site and the kings of kings tombs to myself. Esfahan to this day remains one of my most emotional place in Iran, possibly with the towers of silence in Yazd. Can’t wait returning together with my wife to show her the beauties of the land and experience the hospitality of its people.

As an Iranian it is very nice to see so many positive comments. A wonderful documentary, shows lots of interesting places, although it is about twenty years old! Since then you would find lots of big cities like Tehran and Isfahan getting more and more modernized, but that cultural and historic roots remain for ever! It is a pity this country and its warm and kind people are being destroyed by the authoritarian regime.

Inviting us in to their homes, taking us places we would not have seen otherwise. Nearly 4 weeks of joy. Thank you to all the Iranians, such kind, considerate and gentle people to outsiders.

We real Iranians love everybody, especially strangers. We love all people of the world regardless of who they are and where they have come from. It is the fundamental Islamists who unfortunately have political power in Iran and they are very hateful toward all non-Muslims and even the Muslims who do not have the same beliefs as they do! The regime in Iran is one of the ugliest dictatorships in the last 400 years!

I am a Zoroastrian living in Mumbai, India. Ihave been to Chak Chak (which means dripping water), also called Pir-e-Sabz. I have been here twice and on one of the trips our group stayed here overnight. All around there is desert, but here there is an almond tree(you must have seen it) which is fed by a perennial stream of water. On 14th June every year Zarathotis of Iran make a pilgrimage there. There is enough water for the hordes of people.

Iran-regardless of its authoritarian governments before and after the Revolution-is a country filled with millions of the most hospitable, kind, clever(and downright SMART!) funny, and caring people. And it makes sense because Iran has labored and struggled so many authoritarian governments and rulers for centuries, they’ve learned that is the only way to survive the lives they lead.

Why would any proud Iranian who wishes to see your ancient past preserved, not protect and support this religion. This religion was ancient when Christianity was just, beginning and Islam was not yet, a thought in anyone's mind. I'm old enough to remember when the Shah ruled Iran, and as I remember things, you had a much better and far more progressive nation then. Too progressive for some, it seems, which is why he was deposed. Not sure if you wish for a return of your Monarchy or not, but I so, hope your nation can return to those days again.
