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
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.
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.
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 :)
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.

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. 💙🕊️🤍
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?!
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.
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.
Kind of blows my mind I was able to watch a full-length travel documentary for free ^^ thank you for making this! Lots to think about, and the beauty of this tradition & technology definitely captures the imagination
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!
I don't think I could ever live there in the dessert. I don't think about this often enough but I'm very grateful for living on a continent full of green plants and trees everywhere ❤
But this is only in the central Iran that is a desert climate. If you go to the mountains in the west and northwest of the country it’s all snowy and even colder than Canada! If you go North by Caspian Sea, it is very green. Lots of rain and humidity that makes it greener than Europe. So, unlike what is often assumed, Iran is very diverse in terms of its climate.
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.
Garden is always been a luxury in human history. Even today, if you take google map and look at beautiful backyard with ingrown pool, mature trees and perfect landscapes… you know you are i. A rich area. I love them and i love visiting them. During my trips.
Iran is a luxury, historical and very educated country with the most hospital people in the world. As an Australian travelled to Iran last year, I highly recommend IRAN to tourists.
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
I haven't seen a positive documentary on Iran in a long time, thank you for this
Can’t imagine why

Otherwise your word play is very poor.
Lovely to watch, enjoy and learn. Beautifully captured and narrated.❤
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.
❤❤❤love from 🇨🇦❤ . Beautiful people and such a rich culture
BeAuTiFuL IRAN 💜❤️💚
Amazing documentary. Always been a fan of Persian art, culture, architecture, literature and people.
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.
I was wondering that also. It's not that far from the Mediterranean countries which are all west Asian.
Happy to discover how they preserved this centuries old garden
with its marvellous irrigation system.
🎉🎉🎉 Great Iranian world heritage... respect from Thailand... 🙏 🇮🇷 🇮🇷 🇮🇷 🇮🇷 🇮🇷🇮🇷 🇮🇷 🇮🇷 🙏
Such a beautiful presentation of Iran/Persia, truly hoped everyone watched till the end. Thank you.
Beautiful 🇵🇰❤️🇮🇷
Kind of blows my mind I was able to watch a full-length travel documentary for free ^^ thank you for making this! Lots to think about, and the beauty of this tradition & technology definitely captures the imagination
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!
I don't think I could ever live there in the dessert. I don't think about this often enough but I'm very grateful for living on a continent full of green plants and trees everywhere ❤
But this is only in the central Iran that is a desert climate. If you go to the mountains in the west and northwest of the country it’s all snowy and even colder than Canada! If you go North by Caspian Sea, it is very green. Lots of rain and humidity that makes it greener than Europe. So, unlike what is often assumed, Iran is very diverse in terms of its climate.
What a beautiful poem and song above the magnificent drawing on wall each garden, I wish to see my own eyes someday ❤
Beside the gardens , her voice and the song also need to be praised
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.
I love the fixation with water as art to the eye, ear, and feeling.
Love the gardens - wish you had played beautiful Persian music to go along.

Garden is always been a luxury in human history. Even today, if you take google map and look at beautiful backyard with ingrown pool, mature trees and perfect landscapes… you know you are i. A rich area. I love them and i love visiting them. During my trips.
Long live Iran.
Thanks!
Thank you! ❤️
Wonderful video, thank you!
Thank you, that was beautiful & uplifting for the soul ❤ As a keen gardener, I love seeing unusual & unique gardens. Gardening is an art form.
Wow so Beautiful AND functional!! What a gem, each garden has its marvels. Cheers from Florida
One of the most beautiful places I have ever seen.
Thank you for sharing this paradise with us🎉
Wine in Sufi poetry is a metaphor for soma, the Divine Nectar, the enlightenment of their saints. Hafiz is a Sufi poet.
Muslims don't drink alcohol their little god says it's evil
But then again, maybe they just means good old fashioned wine?😊
Country with rich heritage and good people ❤
It’s very sad I won’t see this beautiful country
Why? You dying?
What a beautiful song and singer there at the end.
beautiful documentary thanks so much!
Absolutely wonderful film. Iranian garden culture is so rich. So very beautiful. Thank you very much.
what a nicely filmed / nicely narrated film
Iran is a luxury, historical and very educated country with the most hospital people in the world. As an Australian travelled to Iran last year, I highly recommend IRAN to tourists.
Looks like this is going to be one of the most successful videos of your channel.
I hope to visit Iran someday. I hear the food is amazing, too!
Thankyou so much for this...beautiful as well as informative and interesting.....💖
Thank you for such a wonderful presentation. What a wonderful world I wish it could get back to it's glory.
Thank you for this positive program. Fair and refreshing ❤
How wonderful. Brilliant use of water and wind.
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
Paria! A voice of freedom!!!🙏🎼💚💛❤
