  • What to do in Esfahan, Iran? 7-11-2007 I slept until 10am, mainly to avoid the mass of Iranian tourists that descended upon the ever wonderful Amir Kabir. A quick beefburger breakfast and I was out the door headed straight back to the pomegranate store, would luck befall Posted by outcast in Point2Point | Nov 11, 2007
  • Esfahan, last chance for Iran It was the early hours of the morning when a tall young student entered the bus took the briefly vacated seat to my left next to the window. I dozed off again i discomfort, but at the next stop was Posted by outcast in Point2Point | Nov 10, 2007
  • Rasht, and not much further Kirsty has told me the name of a man who had sorted out her trip to Masuleh from the little bus terminal in Rasht, and as I asked the first pointy faced bus ticket guy for "Rasser" he merely started Posted by outcast in Point2Point | Nov 9, 2007
  • Iran part3(Kashan, Qom, Isfahan, Yazd, Kerman, Bam, Zahedan) Being a mourning weekend most of the tourist attractions are closed whilst we are in Tehran. To give us a further insight into the differences between the Shi'a and Sunni burial and mourning practices, we are taken to a cemetery.

  • Iran (part2) Tabriz, Zanjan, Tehran Gentlemanly behaviour does not come naturally to Iranian men; at least not towards women. This is a trait I experience on more than one occasion throughout Iran. They bend over backwards to help men though! Women must remain covered at Posted by murphyre in Rebecca's Adventure Around the World | Mar 26, 2008
  • Iran (part 1) The difference in mood is palpable as soon as we cross the Turkey-Iran border. It is one of being oppressed, repressed, and depressed. Perhaps I will get used to it, but I really don't want to. In the processing area Posted by murphyre in Rebecca's Adventure Around the World | Mar 20, 2008
  • Tabriz, Iran I was awake by 6am, but by force and dread of using a shared squat stayed in bed until 10am. Breakfast constituted of fried eggs and a large sheet of thin bread that looked much akin to bubble wrap, though Posted by outcast in Point2Point | Nov 8, 2007
  • Yazd, best place in Iran 12-11-07 Before the 5am alarm call I was already awake. I think Chicago was awake too. We were both experiencing that bite you get when you would both prefer to be heading in the same direction. More for the sake of Posted by outcast in Point2Point | Dec 6, 2007
  • Shiraz, Iran; a place that's a little different 9-11-2007 The alarm sounded at 4.15am and after a quick sweet cake I bought the night before I was soon in a taxi on the way to the bus terminal for the bus to Shiraz. This was going to be my Posted by outcast in Point2Point | Nov 12, 2007
  • Iran, the Border Crossing at Bazargan Iran, the Border Crossing at Bazargan I was a little behind time now, two days, and I was up at 5.15am for a hot shower and out into the misty rain to find the bus to Gubula. I arrived at the Posted by outcast in Point2Point | Nov 8, 2007
  • Yazd, Iran More Photos (http://globerovers.blogspot.com/2007/09/i-r-n.html) I am in dead central Iran, in the ancient town of Yazd. A few hundred kilometers east is the Afghanistan and Pakistan borders. With its amazing badgirs (wind towers) and mud-bric Posted by GlobeRover in GlobeRovers - Exploring Planet Earth | Apr 2, 2007
  • They are called Go Forwards because they don't go backwards! Three days it took to get that piece of paper through that slot in the window. Three days of mauling in 45 degree heat like an All Black at the world cup. Three days.... only to be told "No Posted by djrkidd in Kiwi's Don't Fly! | Jul 15, 2007
  • Kidnapped in the Axis of Evil The cabin door slid open and a slick dark haired Georgian stuck his head out and grunted at me to come to him. I looked up and down the train corridor, no one was about. I wandered over to the Posted by djrkidd in Kiwi's Don't Fly! | Jul 14, 2007
  • Cycling out of tehran At last i have left Tehran the capital of Iran. The first part of my journey was to cycle to Karaj aand from there to Qazvin which was no problem as the weather was clearish and later on Sunny. I cycled through Posted by colorado43 in Starting point | Jun 8, 2007
  • Leaving tomorrow So the day for my departure is only hours away.I leave Tehran at 4am sunday since it is cooler and head towards Turkey. I am excited and have everything in order.

  • Iran Thanks to the terrible internet facilities of Eastern Turkey, I have got a lot to catch up on. While Western Turkey is similar to Europe, and certainly more developed than Romania or Bulgaria, the East is completely different. While Ankara Posted by ChrisEvans in London to Sydney 2007 | May 22, 2007
  • To Mashhad (مشهد) After frolicking with camels in the oasis of Garmeh, at about midnight we jumped on a bus packed full of old Chadored women going to Mashhad, Shi'a Islam's holiest site. The bus was very hot and sweaty (which is expected), Posted by Antonxiii in Silk Road | May 13, 2007
  • Garmeh (گرمه) Having heard several reports of a great homestay in the tiny oasis village of Garmeh, we decided to stop there on the way to Mashhad. The Tehrani artist Maziar (whom we didn't meet since his wife was having a baby Posted by ameurice in Silk Road | May 13, 2007
  • Yazd (یزد) II To round off our stay in Yazd, we visited the ominously-named Towers of Silence in the desert suburbs of the city itself. These two wide stone towers were built on two opposing hills between which there were ruins of a Posted by ameurice in Silk Road | May 13, 2007
  • The Desert This is where we stayed in Garmeh, it was prety cool: The salt plains were lethal. The camel could have been there for years, just the salt preserved it: [img=http://www.travellerspoint Posted by Antonxiii in Silk Road | May 13, 2007
  • Yazd (يزد) We made our escape to Yazd by a long and boring bus ride through the desert (one of them, and our first of many), to the aincient town of Yazd. The signs say it has "the oldest old city" that Posted by Antonxiii in Silk Road | May 8, 2007
  • Shiraz (شیراز) Immediate impressions of Shiraz were of an extremely laid-back provincial city with a pleasant climate (about 30C and very dry). The city was home to many of the greatest Persian poets and consequently attracts thousands to the tombs of both Posted by ameurice in Silk Road | May 4, 2007
  • Esfahan (اصفهان) We spent a few days seeing the sights of Esfahan, which were pretty numerous. There was, of course, the Imam square (the locals say its the second biggest square in the world, but its acutally the seventh biggest) and the Posted by Antonxiii in Silk Road | May 4, 2007
