In oktober 2009 we visited Iran. Not the most comprehensive holiday destination, but it fitted in our wish to experience other cultures and gave us the opportunity to form our own opinion of that country, instead of relying on the media. It was a total surprise: good infrastructuur, beautiful architecture, and very nice people. They came to talk to us, not only to practice their English or sell us things, but also asking very interested on our opinion about their country. We were welcomed in their home country and city like we were family. We advise travelers who are looking for a special destination to plan a visit to Iran!
But of course there are also negative things: to have to comply to wearing a scarf is not always that easy, especially not when you are living there. Although we saw a lot of Iranian women who looked very pretty wearing it.

Like from every place we visited, there are photo's and useful links available in the menu's.
