Bradley writes tourist guides mostly about Asia, but this time he is working on a very special project, retracing the route Marco Polo took from Venice over 750 years ago, happy with any transport he can get, always going East, along the great Silk Road. He’s been on the road for over two months, and has now made it to Iran. Starting in the city of Tabriz, he is in awe of the architecture of the Blue Mosque as well as the carpet trade.

Thank you for showing the reality and beauty of Iran

IRAN....So amazing, rich in culture, history, architecture, beauty & so much more. As a woman myself, I find the women of Iran to be very beautiful, both inside & out, so too, all of it's inhabitants. The locals, the civilians, their hearts are made of pure gold. The media & much of what it spreads globally, I personally find to be untrue/fake & here I see clearly, the polar opposite, of what is almost always spread across the Western world, regarding this fascinating, intriguing & very beautiful country. Thank you for sharing & I send my best wishes to all of the wonderful Iranian people.

It's wonderful to see Iran in this perspective. Typically all the Western world sees is the warzone and terrorist camps in the desert. It's fantastic to see the people and culture and historical cities

I’ve been fascinated by the culture and history of Iran for decades, and I don’t think there is any country in the world where the difference between perception and reality is greater (except maybe Ethiopia). That said, the regime is as awful as our perception.

Maybe if the US kept their nose out of Iran, since 1953, when they overthrew the Shah, things would be a lot different today!

You have incorrectly called Zoroastrians Fire worshipers. To Zoroastrians actually that is an insult. Zoroastrians are NOT Fire Worshipers, this is a derogatory term that the Moslem enemies invented since thy did not know the Iranian language, culture and Zoroastrian belief system. Please ask a Zoroastrian about their belief systems. Because the Moslem Iranians have been brainwashed by Islam, they are alienated from their own culture and history and they (some of the Iranians) too might make the same mistake that you did and unknowing insult Zoroastrians as Fire worshipers. Zoroastrianism is the first monotheistic religion in the world that man of its concept such as one God (Ahura Mazda اهورا مزدا), Good and Evil خیر و شر, Heaven and Hell بهشت و جهنم were copied by the Semitic tribes and incorporated in their religion (Judaism, Christianity and Islam). Iranians are Aryan and NOT semitic, while they respect Semitic people and religions, they would be insulted if they are grouped together with Semites such as Arabs. In Zoroastrian tradition, man is responsible for his/her actions and is engaging is his activities based on its own free will, no metaphysical being is in charge (concept of Free Will that is NOT in the semitic religions where man submit to the will of God). In the Zoroastrian tradition man is in charge and must guard and protect the four elements of life: "Water, Earth, Fire and Wind". Zoroastrians were the first environmentalists. Zoroaster lived around 1775 BC. Please use the words Iran and Iranian instead of Persia and Persians if you want to be historically correct. Thank you

But ... but ... but . . . 99% of Iranians reject Zoroastrianism and embrace Islam (and about 1% of the population of Iran are Bahais, Christians, Jews and Zoroastrians).

dude find a Hobby or something. .... everything you said is obviously false (Except the "fire worship") One important point i will comment on is that, the semites ( including Arabs, assyrians and others... mostly nestorian christians ) were the majority in the capital region of sassanid empire ( modern iraq). Hence, not only they knew everything about the " culture, religion etc." they were an integral part of it. That's why we do not see real wars on large scale, which toppled sassanid rule. It looks more like a civil war and a coupe d'etat. That may be the reason why the coinage did not change much... the new arab rule used the zoroastrian symbols on their coinage for a long time with a small addition of arabic words on the coins. Later you see that most of islamic theology is the work of iranians and not Arabs. Not only does it look like arabs did not care much to impose islam on iranians..... but rather iranians pushing this wagon ahead. 6 out of 7 hadith gatherers are iranians.... many schools of islamic thought were iranians, abbasid caliphate is known as a " persianate" caliphate... etc etc etc Your knowledge of history comes from mostly uneducated people who claim the most outragous things which are baseless at best or outright lies. Btw only iranians and turks.... seem to want to dictate what others call their country. You don't hear ( chinese-greeks_koreans_armenians etc. ) ask other people to call their countries ( chongo_Hellas_ Jeoson_Hayestan etc. )

Sound like Zoroaster and Lao Tzu would have had a lot to talk about ! Or write togeather,if they were born in the same century,just a little closer to each others house.

Revelation 1:13-‬15 And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle. His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire; And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters.
