Beautiful Iran.. love from India to my Iranian brothers and sisters...
we love Indians and India's culture too :)❤
I'm from north india & I always thought that iranians look so similar. Must have a common back ground. Aryans or something
♥
Notcool
About culture IDK
About language yes we maybe similar
When Indian people talking I understand 20% of their words
Love from IRAN to dear friends and our brothers and sisters in INDIA

Swiss girl who can speak Farsi and have visited several times already Iran... why ?
Please be careful there you where lucky to be with the right people the government is dangerous our country has changed
I know that the US and Iranian governments have serious grievances against each other and I won't try and deny that - but seeing this affirms my belief that all people - regardless of their race, religion, or culture - are fundamentally the same and I can't wait for the day when we're in harmony with each other. Much love from the US
Andrew Barnes, Thank you very much. :) We love American people.
please bring me a proof of this? or did you just heard it on manoto or voa? or farsi one?
Andrew Barnes Thanks pal! The same thing goes here! Much love to you!
Short answer: Saudi Arabia

I can here after reading Tom Friedman’s piece in the nytimes, mentioning that Iranians are inheritors of a great culture and that wherever Iranians go they become writers, doctors, lawyers, engineers. All of this is evident from this documentary. Incredible.
Love from Pakistan and America.
Hello
Long live iran from phillipines
I love Iran,the land of my great grandpa and i would visit the old Persia from the Philippines soon!!!
I love Iran too ... from Pakistan
Man, it looks really nice there

Hedieh Saraee If pure for the life in Iran and the Persian people i would visit. Just affraid that i act in a way that can get my into trouble in your country because i dont know the rules/ laws. That being said. You can be proud of your country
+Eric Diavolo you can take a look at the Facebook page 'see you in Iran' you will have more information about everything.
Manijeh Ainollahi Thank you

Iran/Persia is a country with long history and tested cultures. Iranians will integrate with the world in their very own way. Iranians are proud to be born and grow in dependable culture. Iranian culture is human-friendly and nature-friendly. Iranians will set the trend for the world.
my beautiful country
نحن العرب نفتخر بكم ، و كلنا مسلمين ، حفظ الله إيران .
Do you live in Iran? Do people in Iran watch youtube?
@@mikeissweet that??????????? 😕😕😕🤣
@@amirtatv5972 do they?
@@mikeissweet yes with vpn we can watch youtube!
It was one of the coolest documentaries done at tehran
To be honest Iranian women actually enjoy freedom compared to Saudi women.
rithwik singh have you ever been to Saudi Arabia? Just like Iran, you can’t judge it by the media. You either visit Saudi Arabia or keep your mouth shut.
Yeah
you are in mistake
hi

LOVE FROM ROMANIA❤️
Stay strong Iran
Love from India
Persian King Cyrus the Great was probably the greatest king ever to rule.. His tolerance put him far ahead of Alexander the Great concerning character.. Cyrus the Great was the only non Jew the Israelites ever called a messiah because he freed them from Babylon, restored them to Jerusalem and let them rebuild their Temple.
He was revered for letting defeated countries retain their cultures and practices
If only world leaders today would strive to model their characters after that of King of Persia Cyrus the Great, what a much better world we would have.
Hello
beautiful iran , greetings from Yemen .
This is so sad to watch from America right now. No one wants war. I wish for everyone's safety in the times to come.
Well, technically some people do want wars - not just one war, but many. I mean, lots of people want that... weapons dealers, their stock owners, big institutions, organized religions, racist people on both sides .... lol the list just goes on. The national security state?
Edit: oh and I suppose the odd billionaire or royal who's molesting children; it's not just for popes ya know! 😃😃😃
The usa should have smashed Iran along time ago,it is for the good of the american empire to control that oil
why are you always 'lifting the veil' or 'looking under the veil' or 'unveiling iran'. why can't you just stop touching or minding women's clothes? why the obsession?
Claxiux Exactly. In all honesty as an Iranian Canadian in Vancouver, whenever I visit Iran I cant help but notice that Iranian women embrace and do not feel oppressed by the Hijab. Also when you see these videos keep in mind that these people are taking into consideration that they are being filmed. Otherwise, in 99% of women aren’t actually that strict with their Hijabs
Lol veil doesn't refer exclusively to clothes, they mean they are showing what it's like.
@@tahaghassemi2381 Yes but intensions are that of emphasizing the "VEIL"
Arshia Soleimany hi I’m from Iran and I’m a woman.👍🏼
@@arshiasoleimany4509 stop lying. There are at least 30 women in Iran because of that horrible piece of trash you call veil. Women in Iran are NOT okay with it. It's a fckin restriction. They want the freedom to wear or not wear it. Today they cannot chose.
Stop with the crappy "Veil" pun, no one in that country wares a damn veil.
No dude, but most women in Iran wear the chador and rousari, nothing wrong with that. Im not even muslim but I have no problem with people wanting to be modest and morally upright. The chador itself along with the burka have Zoroastrian origins and arent even islamic in reality. I dont think these things should be forced or mandatory but it should definitely be encouraged.
The headscarf (commonly referred to as the "Rousari") is the most basic form of "Hijab" (If you would even call it that).
My problem is with them using the term "Veil", Not once in my 8 years in Iran (I still go back and forth annually) i have never seen a single person wearing the so called "Veil".
+Persepolis I agree, mandatory hijab is a problem, but what I meant to say was that we shouldnt discourage modesty in terms of how you should dress and carry yourself.
burka comes from the Persian word Pardah/Pardeh, the muslims adopted it from the Zoroastrians when they came into contact with them. It was actually the opposite, in Sassanid and Achaemenid Persia noble women would wear the burka, not even chador, but the full on burka with the face covering and all to protect themselves or supposedly their honor from the public eye, while prositutes were forbidden to wear it.
+Darius Ashkani Nope, the statistics have been proved to be misleading and wrong since the definition of rape is different in western countries, the reporting of rape is much higher in western countries and the governments don´t try to cover it up so much.
Raul Pinto those are just theories and myths. Theres no proof that rape on average occurs more in the mideast, out of all places Iran compared to the west.
Love from Ireland
Seems so different to other middle eastern countries. Very settled and calm.
Love Iran from India 🇮🇳🇮🇷
Wonderful and very interesting piece, thank you. Looking forward to seeing next parts...
Love Iran from Bangladesh 😍😍..tomorrow is my xm about history of Iran nd now i m studying about Reja shah, white revolution,islamic revolution in Iran
Love from india
Country with economic sanctions since like 1960, it looks developed enough.
SALAM GREAT NATION AND NEIGHBOUR FROM PAKISTAN
Its not called "Paradox" or "Contradiction" .. its called "Moderation." Too much off anything is bad.
Long Live Iran
Beautiful Country Beautiful People
Beautiful Culture..
Greetings From Bangladesh 🇧🇩🇮🇷
Thanks 🇮🇷❤🇧🇩
I would love to visit Iran _Persia.
To know that Syria was as vibrant, rich in culture.
If you go iran every people guset you in their home it so funny and intersting they give you free food they are really kind
The term "lifting the veil" is offensive and plain ignorant. They have modesty, you dont. You can't get mad at them for that.
+007VitaminD you shouldn't force modesty on anyone
WarriorOfWriters Yet you do not allow people to walk around naked because YOU think that is "immodest". Hypocrite.
007VitaminD Did I say they should be? The hair on your head is not your genitals. Other than that I don't think women should be shamed for exposing their breasts, if men can do it, woman should to.
WarriorOfWriters Wrong, their definition of modesty is different than yours. Breasts are sexual for them, but not for you. Don't hate them just for having a different definition.
007VitaminD I'm not hating them, I love Iranians, but the modesty they live under now was forced on them after the 1979 revolution. Before then they could be immodest and fashionable. I'm not saying it was the best scenario, the government had problems but thanks to the Ayatollah the revolution because Islamic and now they are the Islamic Republic of Iran. Modesty is forced on them in accord with scripture, nothing else. And scripture is a lousy way to govern a country.
as an Iranian i do not like to see my country get westernized at all.
we have been there before and it's a wrong thing to make a mistake twice and i'm beginning to feel like this New President has untold Plans for Iran .
today we have a lot to fear for .
we love to have peace with all the world and open doors to all but we have dealt with the West before and we do not have a history of honesty in diplomacy from the west and of course Russians in the past .
here i would like to let all the other people from the west know that if we sense there are plots going on again , if we reject
west again it does not mean we have any hostility towards the people .
Iran will not compromise when it comes to some values and codes we live by and i hope the Meetings that are taking place behind closed doors are what they are supposed to be .
i am an Electric Guitar player and i played in bands for 10 years so i am nothing religious or revolutionary but i know what we have achieved in the past 35 years and what we have failed to and i would not want to see my country become what it should not be .even if it means i can never play Heavy metal music on the Stage .
Peace and love from Iran .

that's right man . it is Enslavement in mind which of course has enslaved Western people first .
i have American Friends actually confessing they are Hypnotized and one of them from Texas has sold Her house and is trying to come to Iran with her 2 Grown up daughters to live here .
she says America is not a normal country and is very untrustworthy .
she is very Scared of living there .
they believe their government is going to take over the country militarily by announcing Martial law.
and Fema Camps and ...
Amisen KMM
keep on believing till it happens.
i believe it is inevitable .
wow, your comment made my day.
Arzhang Emamifar, No country is normal. Every country has its goods and bads. And no, our country government will not take over our own country with martial law... we have checks and balances in place within our government to ensure that that does not happen. As well as many militia who would work to stop that from happening.
In the meantime.. let's appreciate the differences that make both our countries unique.
Such an interesting and beautiful country with a unique culture! I would love to go there sometime!
The people of Iran are very warm and friendly and the Persian culture is rich and beautiful!
No...no, it doesn't look anything like New York City unless you are referring to 1970s New York.
To introduce us to Tehran, we asked Ramin Sayyed Emami to show us around. A dude who came back to live in Tehran just a few years ago and is essentially a tourist himself =))) and he moved back to the west again after his father "committed suicide" (suspiciously) in prison. Western media goes so far out of their way not to give the common Iranian a voice.
I like all these reporters to also go and visit other prominent cities in Iran like Esfahan, Tabriz , and also north of Iran , the beautiful Mazandaran and Gilan so the viewers will get a taste of different cultures and do not think that Iran is only the Tehran
Wonderfully educational. Thank you.
Iran is one of the best country in the world.
Just beautiful, great talent,with love for the future,theater great
Beautiful amazing love from Pakistan 🇵🇰
I loved your show. Great country and great people. Thank you for showing this
Where is the second part ??
This was a nice documentary. Kind of different from others (it was getting boring as most film makers mostly focused on food and historical monuments). where is the part 2? I can't find it.
❤❤❤❤from Iran🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷
An absolute paradise having no equals anywhere
A great n ancient culture,music,cinema,sports
Unexplored land n locales to be discovered
Great food n beautiful language(its Farsi n not Arabic)
Hope soon to discover Iran
Stay blessed my friends
Come fall in love
veil is part of our religion but that doesnt mean a woman can't be classy and dress sexy even with a veil .
+pouya yarizadeh no veil is some made up sh*t that belongs in the past not now so it's not part of the religion and even if it was, most people don't give a f*ck about islam or are not muslim in Iran these days
You forgot to talk about what happened before the revolution
she says, that Iran is country full of paradox, but she forget to say, that France is completely paradox and double standards !!
IRAN IS WONDERFUL, A VERY OLD CULTURE and, I believe, can manage the greatest ROGUE STATE on our planet. In 1943 a few "top" US men met and decided: We want to rule all countries.Between 1945 and 2015 the USA is responsible , actively or inactively, for TEN TO THIRTEEN DEAD PEOPLE!!!!
Such a beautiful country I wish one day i will visit there and also it's a save and sound country
THEY were such an intelligent people until after the shaw of Iran. They have gone back a thousand years and for what ???
+Helene Millar You are right, I'm an Iranian and the government is the cause of backwardness in Iran. if this sh*t government wasn't there, Iran would have been far better and progressed. But some Iranians because of their arrogant pride always want say Iranians are this and that no matter what.
Why all Iranians left your oldest religious civilization culture. Persians are very good people. Some Persians are living in India. He did not change his religion under the pressure of Muslim ruler and went to India to save his family and his religion.
The dude straight up looks like Jeff Goldblum
Great music too!
Iran is a beautiful place
Iran is a beautiful country
i love Iran......but never been there,,anyone want to host me when i in Iran..???
of course
You definitely don’t need to be worried about a host, you just show up and everyone wants to be your host , feed you, pay for your ride,give you a shelter for free and other stuff. Personally 4 years since my last visit which is really sad and I missed every single thing about Iran except streets and cars and drivers:)) mate just go there and enjoy the food and culture.
Learn to pay for your expenses.
Iran has every thing enchanting to draw concentration of the world... They r patriot and valour race all the above whatever they do, do on their own vims and wishes. they r neither subject to take advice from ors. nor ready to bow before worldly powerful country...long live Iran.
Interesting video
Rick Steve's actually dug into the culture, this did not, but still found a way to throw in the negative propaganda cheapshots. amazing. It's on us "The People" to break down the barriers between cultures.
On a western Med cruise on the NCL Jade in 2010,my 3 older sons hung out with 3 Iranians for the first couple days of the cruise....We did not know where they were from,We asked them!!They replied Iran,my sons /the wife/and I turned and all looked at them at the same time..Oh we have 7 sons ,5 in were born in the 90s and the twins in 2008.The young Iranian,smiled and said Iranians love America,the cloths/the movies/the freedom/the people....He said the Iranian government is the one that dont like America!!! :)
what ie the name of song at 2.19
Love from Israel. Hope we can be friends and not nuke each other.
Hi from Tehran. Hope things become normal between our countries so we can host you 🙏
My beautiful country 😍❤️
Iran is not Middle East , it’s in Asia ,while Iraq turkey Emirates Tatar Kuwait Saudi Arabia Bahrain Oman Lebanon Syria Jordan = Middle East . I think westerns need to study geography maps again.
Can someone told me how to get visa please? I am from Portugal.
plz give a lecture on "Cultural development of Iran" in urdu language plz and plz
My brother's and sisters from india
Lol France is at war with the veil.
not once was the veil lifted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wish I could visit Iran . Thrice I transit in Iran international airport . The airport so cool the food the internet so koooolll
Wow the great land of parthians Iran
Persians yes
+Darius Ashkani Pathians aren't persian.
Alex 1996 they actually are as they claimed ancestory from the Achaemenid Persians.
Darius Ashkani Parthians are northeastern iranian people. Ther are NOT persian!
Alex 1996 their ruling families claimed to be of Persian Achaemenid ancestory and claimed lineage from Cyrus the great, they themselves said this, therefore they were Persian.
Very difficult to access. Lol.
The Islamic Republic of Iran continues to work toward nuclear weapons. If the government would dedicate its resources to the well-being of Iranians rather than nuclear weapons and proxy terrorist wars, their country and culture would be much better off.
Iran lovely 💖💖💖💖💖💚💚💚💚💟💟💟💟💟
0:50 She's is expecting a handshake... Not allowed?
A man is not allowed to touch a woman if they are not married or related, but hes probably irreligious dunno why he wouldnt shake hands
Even before revelation many things were illegal such as some books,,,,,
Love Iran 💖
Iran is really nice, I wish the worlds major powers like France Germany Russia China etc. didn't revolve around whatever the US says and have more open relations with Iran .
Iran has been the most recent version and the rest is history of this year to get my interest rate of inflation
Shout out po kay Brad, Jasver, Pecson, Rich
Bring back the Secular Shah and restore Persian greatness!
Pragmatist so the west can take our resources away and do some charity work here for us to praise em?
