The Secrets behind the Gardens in Iran | A Glimpse of Paradise EP 1 | Luxury Living

- The Iranian desert. A high plateau, surrounded by mountain peaks. Dry and barren. Yet for thousands of years a sophisticated irrigation technology has defied the desert here and made it possible for world famous gardens to flourish. They are the example and the pattern for the garden culture of the Islamic World. We would like to trace their origins in the desert and set out on a journey through the hot steppes to these refreshingly green oases.

I haven't seen a positive documentary on Iran in a long time, thank you for this
Can’t imagine why
now that "the west" isn't actively at war with the country, and therefore anti-Iran propaganda no longer necessary, we commoners are privileged to consume positive media our the former "enemy"
@@hsmd4533 🤡
Thats you call POSITIVE DOCUMENTARY? OMG... LMAO She literally spit on Iranian people...
@@fmvrpv3509 thats not what literally means.
Ancient Persian technology is spectacular. Long live the Persian people and culture ❤

First of all , The city of Isfahan founded in the Sasanid empire (Neo Persian ) not saljuks . The gokturks tribes that existed in north east of central asia , had wars with Sasanid in that era and finally defeated. The Sasanids bring the left tribes of turks that surrounded to iran and they became iranian turks . The works of garden that you mentioned reached to it's peak in Andalusia has the Persian roots. Besides the Andalusia has Conquered by the Persian Muslim commander Tareq . Taj Mahal for example that you said made by Persian architects based on Persian style. Persians made porch and arch in architecture for instance that are using in many Islamic buildings.
@@hayrettinankarali6946 you must learn English at first free time you find then read history of turk people outside of Turkey, the history written by foreign is more real than insider's. parsian history written by they enemies and show them nice guy , but turk history mostly written by pan turks . saljuk , afshar safavi qhajar all of them call themselves Iranian, nader shah call himself iran King even he order write one coin in parsian. just get out of pan Turkish illusion
@@hayrettinankarali6946 I don't understand this blind, near-fanatical anti-Persian sentiment that you Turks harbor. It's also usually accompanied by a great deal of unfortunate ignorance.
The most beautiful thing about Iran are it’s extremely hospitable people..I’ve visited Iran twice in 10yr n found people so loving n bighearted than any country I’ve visited
US propaganda has showing their like doomed people under harsh regime .What is not truth at all
I have heard many say the same thing about the Iranian people. Very kind people. We must not forget that the government---and the people of a country--are 2 different things.
Many countries have wonderful people who happen to be oppressed by their own governments. People who yearn for freedom.
@@dragonfly9209 Governments of almost ALL countries have been infiltrated and hijacked by the Satanic Cabal.
I've had the exact same experience. I love the whole Middle East region, Arab countries especially, but I've never met more welcoming and hospitable people than in Iran. And I have a feeling I never will. It's a country of striking beauty and incredible people.
@@dragonfly9209A conversation without bringing in the government is a conversation wasted 😆 funny bot
Great documentary, kudos to the team! Most of the Persian culture has been overshadowed by stereotypes made by the Islamic Republic as well as some of the western mainstream media.
As an American, I know it would be unlikely I'd ever get to see Iran, but it's so beautiful! I'm grateful there are documentaries and videos I can watch :)
If you go there and follow the rules you'll be fine, Iranians are extremely nice.
The people aren’t the problem. It’s the evil in the government, & that’s true for most countries. I saw a Rick Steves in Iran travel special years ago, & it was wild to see how genuinely kind, loving, & welcoming the people were to him, especially because we only see them chanting, “Death to America” all the time. I’m sure they were told to make a good impression, etc., but the level of hospitality they showed him can’t be faked by everybody; in my opinion, it was genuine.
I’ve always wanted to go to Russia back when it was the USSR to see Saint Basil’s Church in Moscow from
the first time I saw it on tv. Even if I had a personal invite from Putin & billions $$$$$$$ to pay a bribe, I would never go there now.
@@southbug27 Their domestic issues are not your business. Iran's government isn't as evil as that of Israel. Don't see you criticizing Israel! Not even close. Suggest you focus on your own life, rather than the strongest country in West Asia.
@@ciaronsmith4995 the domestic issues are definitely your business if you're visiting. You can't travel with a dog, for exemple, you'll be arrested. And didn't your morality police killed at least a few people in the street? How is anyone going to visit, if all sorts of weird and arcane rules are in place, and sometimes the punishment is death?
@@DumitruUrsu There's barely any crime. Tourists are treated unbelievably well, so again, just follow the rules and you'll be safer than in most places on earth. You can travel with a dog.
I love this place. Tomb of hafiz, wine and poem. Celebrating life❤.
What a beautiful country and beautiful parks. I'll definitely visit those someday. Love that architecture and palm trees with pines.
Absolutely beautiful and inspiring, I had the best Boss ever from Persia and he would tell me how beautiful it was and now I finally get to see it.. Beautiful documentary.
There be gardeners, caretakers of our plants everywhere! There is Hope. Maybe the love of gardening will unite us all ??
Such a beautiful documentary, informative,positive and relaxing. High appreciation for the wonderful video
Thank you for taking the time to get to know the importance of gardens and culture of the people of Iran. We are proud of our culture and no mater how hard the Islamic republic will make our lives, we won't let go of our ancient and beautiful traditions.
عجب پس آمریکای عزیز تحریم میکنه جمهوری اسلامی فشار میخوره اینقدر عقده ای و کینه ای نباشید و حقایق رو ببینید طوری حقد پیدا کردید آدم کشی در فلسطین رو هم حمایت میکنید...
Islamic Republic of Iran is my love we are living for humanity
Exactly how is the Islamic republic hurting your culture 😂? After the revolution, a special focus was given to traditional arts. Stop lying all over the place😂.
Please stop lying. Stay in the west and enjoy serving your masters
this dumb doc is telling ppl its islamic and you are thanking them? its iranian not freaking islamic.
Indu spotted😂
Thanks for this. I have been fascinated by the Persian Gardens for many years. I wish I could visit.
You can! Just be respectful towards the culture!
All my love for Iran and iranian people from Italia❤❤❤
Beautiful ❤ Peace and Liberty to all Iran ❤
I lived in Iran for six years, of which four where in Isfahan, there are a great many quanats around the city that feed the water into it. From the air it looks like spokes of a wheel. There is also a fire temple there which predates Islam. (Asraphrat religion)
Beautiful country, will visit in the future, love their pasian rugs in Isfahan, watching from Nigeria.
Fantastic. I love deserts and poetry. Now I love iranian gardens!
I wish the western American deserts had such watery gardens and calm courtyards of beauty. I’m only familiar with trashy abominations like Las Vegas and Phoenix.
Rich culture,so beautiful, we need not have war, each culture needs to be celebrated ❤🎉
so true!
culture yes; but the Iranian government is killing Iranian culture
@@senator1295 sad if true. one of the longest lasting and vibrant cultures on earth
Iran is too strong for war.
Persians are smarter than you probably. No offense!
@@ciaronsmith4995 gather hour Hijabies .ther time has come
I want to visit these gardens someday ❤.
Iranian culture is the center of civilization . Long live Iran 💚🤍❤️
I pray peace for your country.
Long live lovely Iran.

Now I want to visit Yazd after watching this Documentary
I have a troublesome back at the moment, and am in and out of sleep. I fell asleep while watching this and had beautiful gardens in my dreams. Thankyou.
Loved the documentary. Some people in the comment section should watch more of this content instead of Fox news because their ignorance is showing
And those comments are so disheartening
The end with beautiful melodious voice of Phariah was amazing
I want the title of that song
I hate we (USA) do not get along with Iran. I would love to see their world and experience their gardens. Because of our world leaders, civilians can not be friendly with each other. Sad how leaders do this. Looks like a beautiful place to see.
I've heard Iranians are extremely welcoming, even to Americans and Brits.
We got along fine with the Shah and others. Only the Ayatollahs make trouble with all their neighbors.
Iranians doesn't hate the americans but hate the american government, get that straight!
@@DarlyaFaroeste And vice versa
If only the American government would apologize and pay reparations for installing a dictator to topple a socialist government.
This was really beautiful to see! I am an argentinian, and I always wanted to visit Iran at some point. Really great and positive video! ❤ Also, loved the music a lot!
beautiful documentary thanks so much!
Persian history is fascinating!❤️☝️
Wine in Sufi poetry is a metaphor for soma, the Divine Nectar, the enlightenment of their saints. Hafiz is a Sufi poet.
I want to visit Iran so bad it looks so beautiful
Remembered I have watched this documentary few years back on local cable. Surprised to see it is finally here on UA-cam. Glad I can watch them all over again.
How beautiful everything looks. What inheritance has been begot by the people of Iran. Peace and Prosperity be yours.
I love Hafiz’s poetry.
Love to Iran 🇮🇷 from Armenia 🇦🇲
Fiquei apaixonada pelos jardins e arquitetura. Deus ensinou aos homens a fazer coisas maravilhosas. Abraços do Brasil.
Greatest Country on earth.
Persian culture is beyond beautiful. I now will try to find some good books about it.
May gardens bring us together ..
Peace be with you
🕊 and with you also, my friend! 🌱🌸🌷🌼🏵💮🌹🌺🌻💐
usa should end islamophobia then everything will be normal
The World is lucky Iran exist here.
Iranian n japanese gardens are my absolute favourite
Known for poems and flowers Iran I won’t die with out visit you.❤️
Making regions lush green with tall spreading shadows various trees 🌳 suitable for Soil&climate of the regions is HOLY work.God bless you all
Love for persia,love for Hafeez ❤,love for poetry, love for garden
Iran.
@@ciaronsmith4995these gardens and the poetry are from ancient Persian culture. Not from modern Iran. You should be proud of the thousands of years old culture you've inherited.
@@lajwantishahani1225 It's the same thing. Iranians are Persians, speak Persian and the country was always called "IranShahr". Persia is what the enemy Hellenics and Romans called it genius. You should learn some basic history before commenting. Modern Iran, is Ancient Iran. And Iranians are the strongest in West Asia in all areas. Cheers.
@@lajwantishahani1225 the art and style is orignated by the concept of humanic thinking from the quranic explanation of paradise
Land of kings, love the majestic beauty and intelligence of this culture, all my respect, from Chile
BeAuTiFuL IRAN 💜❤️💚
Isko dekh kar humara dil ❤ toh Garden Garden ho Gaya ji ❤
Beautiful presentation. A feast for the eyes. A fan and an admirer from Pakistan.
Thank you for showcasing this documentary, Iran is a beautiful country ❤
08:44 correction: Iran is in WESTERN ASIA. Central Asia is fomed basically by the Stans (Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan etc)
Precisely. And then what about the "climactic" zones instead of climatic? Geography clearly not the strongest point of the narrator.
So beautiful
Beautiful Iran,an ancient Empire.❤....shine Iran more n more.
Long live Iran.
that wind cooling tower is awesome.
Yeah, that was some magnificent ancient engineering. There is a beautiful ancient Persian bathhouse in Iran, and scientists for a long time couldn't figure out how they would warm up the water in the entire facility with jus a single candle, and I think just in the passed few years they might have figured it out. I agree with you that was some cool stuff.
Iran is so beautiful plus her voice is magnificent!🙏🏿🎼❤️
Kheily khob bod, man iran ro bisiyar doost daram
showing Iranian gardens and lands mixed with arabic music
so exotistic and close-minded
Right. Total missed opportunity to showcase the beauty of traditional Iranian music. Disappointing
Beautifully done. The gardens, the art, the people all are true treasure.
Happy to discover how they preserved this centuries old garden
with its marvellous irrigation system.
Beautiful!!! A great country w/ a spectacular history but limited tourism!!
yes, i have always loved iranian culture, but sadly i do not know if i can visit it one day
@@sergeigen1You really have to visit, it's a magnificent country, breathtakingly diverse in landscapes, culture, etc...and an adorable, very welcoming population.
On-site costs are extremely inexpensive.
I loved it so much that I'm going back, it takes 1001 lives to discover and visit everything 😊
@@sergeigen1come vist, who stopping you?
Beautiful
Lovely to watch, enjoy and learn. Beautifully captured and narrated.❤
Veronika Hofer, you did marvelous job to create this video with all the relevant and accurate information in a cohesive progression. You visited most of the important gardens of Iran. Camera work was great and of course the grand finale song by Parya. Loved it and I hope EP1 is a promise that there will be EP2+ I also would like to add that the word Paradise which you mentioned has a Persian orgian is composed of two words Pairi and Daeza. Comes from Pahlavi language and It means Round Wall or surrrounded with wall. Pairi is root of today's Persian word Peeramoon or surrounding, around. Daeza is the root of the word Dezh in today's persian meaning a castle a fort. So, the wall that surrounds this fort or a man's castle or his garden stood to represent what one wishes heaven would look like. Then it becamse Pardis in old persian, Paradiso in Greek and Paradise in English. The phrase "Islamic Gardens" is as stereotypical creation of British orientlaists as the phrase Middle Eastern Countries is. Middle Eastern from whose point of view? The British. The gardens started in Persia. Arabs did not have gardens. They were civilized by the Persians during the two hundred years of occupation of Persia. Gradually Arab's conquest spread to north Africa and then entered Europe. With the knowledge they absorbed from Persian about water channels and garden designs, they built magnificent gardens such as the Alhambra of Spain. These gardens, none of them are Isalmic even though there is might be a mosque next to it. They are all Persian Garden designs built by people whose religion was Islam. Exactly like we do not call any of the gardens in France or Italy as Christian garden. Monet's Christian Garden, etc. History was written by those who carried the sword.
Thank you for clear and correct explanation. There is no Islamic garden for sure but the Persian garden which was created during the Cyrus the great 530 BC. 💙🕊️🤍
this should be the pinned comment
With all due respect! May I ask why was it necessary to emphasize to write a lengthy paragraph explaining about the history and blaming the other party. Although it was clearly mentioned in the video about the history where the concept of paradise or garden comes from! So kindly ask your self!! Was the history written by people carrying the sword?? Or for your sadistic pleasure you like to mix or stirr religion with culture. Mind you both are totally different. So now who is to blame?!
I guess this video is for the blind no? The one who is excited for that particular comment to be pinned! Strange passions of people here.
Tit for tat! No thank you. You only want to engage into a silly argument just for nothing. Instead of correcting yourself you just want a head-on collision. And yes spellings does matter. And again thank you I am not interested in your silly argument. Again read what I wrote because in your case it was mainly a pleasure article rather than an informative one. So yeah try to separate the two word "Religion" and "Culture" in life as these are two separate. I can get more direct but you should be sensible enough to understand. Otherwise your word play is very poor.
Veronika, thank you so much. Iranian gardens are really beautiful.
Funny how the western leaders and media want us to believe the opposite.
We often ommit the workers whose hands builted these beautiful things...all my respect and honor to them!!!
I am obsessed with the Paria singing the song at the end of this video, wish I knew what she was saying
Persian poetry is usually filled with ambiguity or ambiphology which makes it beautiful and full of mysticism. So the superficial meaning is this.
A flour bud has grown recently under the shadow of a tree.. Neither I can reach it nor will it drop to me on its own.
I am out of this world with joy, because it's prick has cut my thumb.
Now in the next line it is exposed that the the poet is really talking about his lover. He says
Let's go to the local shrine and make a vow between us.. And who ever breaks the vow.......
So what he meant from the beginning was that his lover is playing hard to get and it will be joyful to him even if some harm comes to him from her. You get the point I am sure.
Beautiful 🇵🇰❤️🇮🇷
Mesmerising beauty-the land, the gardens, the people, the history and heritage. To think that Israel would nuke this land of they had a chance.
Love the gardens - wish you had played beautiful Persian music to go along.
Copyright might be an issue.
Wow one would think if one had all these gardens then one would understand the importance of reforestation out from the city to stop the sand storms would be wise and make the desert usable again. Wow
Beautiful documentary, pictures, sounds and this light! Simple living , clean streets, respect to culture and traditions
It’s very sad I won’t see this beautiful country
Why? You dying?
Fun fact: The concept of Paradise (Firdaus) in Islam actually were inspired by the Achaemenid Empire paradisaea gardens. "One of the most important elements of paradise gardens is water, with ponds, canals, rills, and fountains all being common features. Scent is an essential element with fruit-bearing trees and flowers selected for their fragrance."
My beautiful Iran)))))
🎉🎉🎉 Great Iranian world heritage... respect from Thailand... 🙏 🇮🇷 🇮🇷 🇮🇷 🇮🇷 🇮🇷🇮🇷 🇮🇷 🇮🇷 🙏
This has to be one of the most informative and beautiful documentaries ive ever watched. Thank you for the insight into the amazing civilization, history and culture of Persians. Wow! Totally changed my perception of the middle east as a whole.
American school system spends very little time on the history of the Persian empire. Greeks, Romans- yes.
Fantastic country. Just a pity that a few old blokes feel the need to ‘opress’ and control the young women … what are they afraid of ? Still. I’d love to visit one day. I bet the general population are friendly and generous in spirit. :-)
You are too much under the influence of the mainstream media. Seek the truth from elsewhere.
The Persians brought a lot of the beautiful gardens to India, particulary in the Kashmir region.
Beautiful Thank you for Sharing
Islam has given us golden period of civilization and developments, persian islamic renaissance period orignated by the concept of humanic thinking of architects from the Quranic explanation of gardens and palaces in paradise
What a beautiful poem and song above the magnificent drawing on wall each garden, I wish to see my own eyes someday ❤
This presentation was a joy, Thank you.
Iran is beautiful. People food culture hospitality is outstanding. It is a great shame the government won’t allow tourist access to come and enjoy the country and help the economy. Iran should be seen to be appreciated.
I've a mixed feelings about what you said. Tourism and its economical benefits I agree with but as long as it doesn't harm our national security and also our natural resources. You can see in this video it does also include a political message. On the second point, Eco tourism for example, is a tricky business. It can apply some damage to the nature.
You get your information from the lying mainstream media. Many many citizens get visa on arrival at the airport. Everybody can get in.
Looks like this is going to be one of the most successful videos of your channel.
Wonderful video, thank you!
I hope to visit Iran someday. I hear the food is amazing, too!
Wow so Beautiful AND functional!! What a gem, each garden has its marvels. Cheers from Florida
Fun Fact "Paradise" in English Language is Came From Persian Word of "Pardis" پردیس Which is Name Of Persian Garden
the narrator literally explains that near the beginning
It’s inspirational. So much of the US is desert.
more like firdous

Firdous is Arabized of Pardis
There is no "P" in Arabic Language

As an American and a Jew I would love to see Iran. From dna testing, I have some dna from here.
what a nicely filmed / nicely narrated film
Such a great documentary!

Congratulations, Ms. Hofer for s delectible film!
Thank you for this positive program. Fair and refreshing ❤
The same gardens exist in Alhambra palace Spain and Morocco and Egypt and the Taj Mahal. So yes it is an Islamic art to recreate an enclosed Oasis.
exactly, its orignated by the concept of humanic thinking from the quranic explanation of gardens of palaces in paradise
The most beautiful thing
about Iran are the Persians ❤
What's the title of that song sung at the end? I love it😍
