Book Iran: a Cultural Journey to the Heart of Ancient Persia
On a compelling cultural journey through the heart of Iran, we admire the magnificent domes, calligraphy and tilework of the historic mosques of Shiraz and Isfahan; wander through mediaeval Yazd with its wind towers, water gardens and Zoroastrian fire temples; peruse the labyrinthine bazaars selling dried fruits, gold, marquetry and tribal carpets; visit ancient caravanserai along the Silk route; discover Persian poetry and the esteem in which the great poets like Firdowsi, Hafiz and Sa’adi are held; and on foot, explore legendary Persepolis, founded by King Darius c. 515 BC and sacked by Alexander the Great in 330 BC.
