Overview
There is always more to see with us
Iran, previously known as Persia, is famous
for its amazing history and ancient civilization. The Iran of today is a
mixture of modernity and traditions, where oriental charm is preserved. It
occupies a large territory in the Middle East. Nature of Iran is full of
contrasts: here you will encounter lush forests and endless deserts, rocky
mountains and vast valleys, the subtropical climate in the Caspian Sea region, and
the heat of the Persian Gulf.
The history and culture of Iran are no less amazing. The first thing
you shall notice in Iran is the diversity of ethnic groups and cultures.
Statistics say that they're only 61% of ethnic Persians in Iran, besides there
you will meet Azaris (16%), Kurds (10%), Lurs (6%), Arabs (2%), Baluchis (2%),
Turkmens (2%) and others. The remarkable fact is that these people co-exist
peacefully with each other. This tradition goes back to the times of Achaemenid
Empire (558-330 BC), when religious and cultural tolerance was part of state
policy.
Linguistic
diversity in Iran is even more overwhelming! Distinct dialects of the Persian
language exist in many cities, like Esfahan, Shiraz, and Yazd. Azeris, Kurds and
Arabs use their own languages rather than Persian and there're dialects in
their languages, too.
Most people think that Iran is a predominantly
Muslim country. However, you will be surprised to find followers of 4 religions
living side by side: Islam, Christianity, Judaism and Zoroastrianism. All of
them have the same rights, that is: performing their religious rites, having
official representatives in the Parliament, schools, cultural associations, and
newspapers in the language. Thus, Iran is not just mosques and calls to prayer,
but also ancient churches, synagogues, and holy sites for Zoroastrians.
Usually tourists expect to see only ancient
cities, mosque domes and nice little villages in Iran. However, you'll be
surprised to see modern Iran. Much has been since the Islamic Revolution of
1979: industry and agriculture developed to a large extent, universities were
founded, even the first steps in space were made. The Iranian economy is one of the
most flourishing economies in the Middle East (Find out more about business in
Iran here). Iranian cities look quite modern with highways connecting different
parts of the city, skyscrapers, fancy hotels, and restaurants.
The last stereotype to be broken is women
rights in Iran. Iranian laws don't prevent Iranian women from studying
(there're more women with degrees than men), working in governmental and
private organizations, driving, doing professional sports, playing in
orchestras, exhibiting in art galleries, and so on.
