      no great wonder, possibly the inspiration for **handmaids tale** is the islamic republic of iran or a religious dystopian republic not dissimilar**..

      saudi arabia and iran both think they are world super powers, both think they own islam, both think each other, are part of some worldwide conspiracies
      ....that is why they are the greatest of enemies...despite the peoples suffering...each of them, scream at each other in arabic and farsi ...

    I am an Iranian and have visited many countries. No one will ever understand, but Iranians so genuinely are intrigued and interested on foreigners and love to learn about foreigners. It is really the legacy of the Persian empire that tried to incorporate all other nations offerings in their system.

    I would absolutely love to visit Iran! The people are kind, generous, have a great sense of humor and curious about strangers. And they love to talk. Most importantly to me, they are one of the most attractive peoplle in the world. I suspect I would find many reasons to stay once I was there, hanging out in coffee bars, making new friends, visiting many places - I suspect it is the place to go for many good reasons. Are visas easier to get if you are Canadian? I'm Canadian.

      Actually, if you are a dual citizen, I encourage you to travel with your non-Canadian passport. Getting Iranian visa for Canadians is more difficult than perhaps any other nationality, beside Americans. Main reason is the hostility of the Canadian government against Iran. Since our spineless hypocritical Canadian government closed the Iranian embassy in Ottawa (under the pressure of Israeli and Saudi lobbies and their lackeys), getting Iranian visa is difficult for Canadians (you actually need to get the Iranian visa via Pakistani embassy in USA!!)...Besides, citizens of USA, Canada, UK, and Australia are not allowed to roam around Iran freely. They either need to travel as part of a tour, accompanied by an Iranian government agent, or be sponsored by an Iranian citizen. The reason is historically, many English and American spies have done terrible things in Iran. If you can obtain a European (or any other) passport, then it is best to use that so you can roam around Iran freely.

    • @13muller9
      @13muller9 2 роки тому

      @@tosansimorgh2975 It is great that you conveniently fail to give the real reason for the deterioration of relationship between Iran and Canada. Unless you are suffering from Alzheimer, you fail to mention that Zahra Kazemi, a dual citizen of Iran and Canada (If I remember her last name correctly), was brutally injured by the revolutionary forces in Iran by a kick to her head, while taking pictures in front of Evin prison (to the best of my memory), and then was tortured in Evin prison and was murdered there. Next time instead of blaming Israelis, Saudis, Nelson Mandela and Mother Theresa, have a look at the brutality of the security forces in Iran you hypocrite. No response would be read as you are a liar and have no conscience in telling flat out lies.

    I was in Iran around 2005 during Ramadan FABULOUS the people, architecture, scenery, food. Note I put people first in the list. I was in an organised group but we had free time and we moved around very openly on our own including late at night. The tour travelled around the country including a domestic flight and staying in a caravanserai. Just loved it .. so much that I hope the secret doesn't get out about how wonderful this country is so I can go back again and it hasn't changed!

    I am Iranian resident in India. Your presentation is very good. Well done. One needs to know however that Iran is a plateau (second highest after Tibetan plateau), with average height of 1200 meters above the sea level, and has four seasons, also has many different climatic zones. In the center of Iran, in summer, it is hot and dry, but in winter it becomes bitterly cold with heavy snow fall, even in region of Yazd and Esfahan, so take your warm coat and boots with you if you visit Iran in winter.
    Iran, unlike the common views, is a very mountainous country. Alborz high mountain range in the north and Zagros mountain range in western Iran. Many parts of Iran are like Ladakh Himalaya région in India and one can go for long hikes in these mountains. Desert areas are in the center but it does snows in the desert in winter.

    Cool, u pretty much covered everything u need to know before traveling to iran although i don't think we have such a thing as fourteen . and about VPN, i think the best thing to do is buying it in iran. taarof is kinda tricky to deal with 😉 officials are more flexible than you think, the only thing to keep in mind is that they're mostly really strict on politics so try not to talk about that kinda stuff. Btw, if ur interested in arts, there are some truly amazing museums, art galleries and performance art going on here (definitely check out "tehran museum of contemporary art" ). I'm planning to do videos on these sometime soon so i can cover everything in detail because i really think iran should be on ur travel list.

    I loved Iran! It’s beautiful and the culture is so rich. The best part is that everything in Iran is from Iran. The most confusing thing for me was the money conversions. They say 100 tomaan (which is just a denomination that has no currency note!) but you have to just automatically understand they mean 1000 which is the currency note you’ll have to give.

    Iran has made some drastical regime change 40 years ago, thats why there is some intolerance between previous and current regime supporters. The new regime may be better or worst but this does not change Iranian culture and people in general. I see some Iranian people in my town, %90 of them are nice and polite people. Most of them are well litterate, young people know English ( self educated mostly). Many of them have knowlege of art, history and literature. Did you ever see an American or other westerner who said that most famous things in his home town are poets X and Y and rose gardens ? These people actualy somehow had left for good their own place but most of them are proud with themselves and their country.

    Ta'arof in Iran is very common...I would say that it exists on almost everything. From entering a door, eating, or even paying for stuff you buy from the stores. Decades ago, there were a lot more store owners who would really treat you as a guest and not pay for your items especially when they know you're visitors, or even when your money wasn't enough...they will let you go without paying. They treat the guests there as 'God sent'. So for them, they will give you everything to make you feel comfortable and happy.

    Hello everyone,
    I'm an eighteen years old boy from Iran.
    At first I must appreciate this young man for introducing our beautiful country.
    There are few things you should know about iran.
    1- iran is the cheapest country for foreign visitors, both dollars & euro have high value,
    for instance: One pizza with coca cola, salad and potato will cost 10 dollars.
    Or 10 night in best hotel's contain breakfast, lunch and dinner in cities like isfahan, shiraz or mashhad will cost 6000 dollars(I'm not sure that it's expensive or cheap, you can compare it with your country.)
    You can buy best clothes contain shirt, Jean, coat, tie and shoe only with 300 dollars.
    2- iran is four season country, which means you can see different types of beauty in each season in iran.
    Also we have different weather in one day around iran.
    For example, in the august, in summer, we have 50 degree at the south of Iran, but if you go to (ardebil) in north west. You should turn on your cars heater!
    3- iranian are really hospitable for you. If you come to iran as a tourist, you will be treated polite and kind. Despite economical problems and a dictator regime, they help you at all costs.
    you will never forget your travel to iran.
    Sincerely yours,
    Ali Kolahdooz.

      Seems like to begin with, It was the bastard American oil companies and their stock holders that stole money from oil-rich middle eastern countries. If you don't know about this, study about it. US government is the one that finances and trains terrorist to cause instability in middle east. You wanna do something about all these problem, put your act were your mouth is running and take down your government that by far has surpassed the definition of dictatorship. By the way, Iran unlike any other country is very safe.
