Last year I managed to visit the Arkhangelsk region and spend a whole week in Arkhangelsk. The purpose of the trip is to look at the icebreakers in motion and personally make sure that the ice cut by the ship instantly freezes and after a few minutes people start walking on it.
Record one-day hitchhiking After returning from Yazd to Kerman, I rested after dinner and watched TV. In one of the broadcasts, the speech of the Iranian spiritual leader was broadcast, combining it with demonstrations of holy places and people who gathered in the squares, prayed and listened to se...
Yazd is one of the oldest cities on Earth, according to archaeologists, it has existed since the 3rd millennium BC. e.

male loneliness Music. Listen to the song Mohsen Chavoshi - Nashkan Delamo (Don't break my heart). http://sanyok-belarus. people. en/Iran_Music/Mohsen_Chavoshi_-_Nashkan_Delamo.
First of all, I wanted to visit the Copper Bazaar (Bazaar e Mesgari Shomali). A rhythmic rumble was heard from the shops - each blow of the hammer on the copper mold brought the birth of a new copper pan closer.
Most often, tourists miss this city, passing it in transit on the way to Bam or Pakistan. But in my opinion, a special atmosphere has still been preserved in Kerman: the city does not look like the touristy Yazd or the Mashhad flooded with pilgrims, it is not as hot as Bandar Abba and much safer tha...
Back to Kerman The exit from Bam was not far from the university where my friend studied, and all his acquaintances came out to see me, and more so to see how I would hitchhike.
My fastest hitchhiking From Kish Island, I took a ferry to Bandar Charak, and then continued on to Bandar Abbas, where I decided to stay with my friend Daniel for a few days.
Four days on Kish Island I visited Kish Island at the end of September and stayed there for four days, spending only $18, including the cost of ferry tickets, which should have cost $24 round trip.
Fishing in Bender Charak From Qeshm, I returned to Bandar Abbas and began to explore the possibilities of getting to the island of Kish. The LP guide offered two options.
Qeshm Island Qeshm Island is the largest island in the Persian Gulf. You can get to it by ferry, departing from the main pier in Bandar Abbas and arriving in the main city of the island, which foreigners call "Qeshm Town", a one-way ticket costs $8.
Bus-stop to Bandar Abbas To get to Bandar Abbas from Shiraz, I had to overcome 650 km, so I tried to get on the road as early as possible. But it was not possible to leave quickly, so I went to a gas station, where I turned to a random driver for help.
It was my last day in Shiraz and my fourth night at Sherwin's. On this day I was going to visit Persepolis with a couchsurfer Dominik from Austria. - You need to wake up at five in the morning and leave at half past five to Marvdasht, - Sherwin admonished, - from there you will take a taxi to Takht...
Shiraz - "city of gardens" If you try to briefly describe Shiraz, you get "a city of gardens, flowers, poets and wine", and here's why. Shiraz is famous for its gardens, arranged in accordance with the descriptions of the afterlife gardens of bliss given in the Koran, there are mausoleums of promine...
Amazing Iranian hospitality By six o'clock in the evening I had only made it half way. On the way, I was detained by orange orchards, the owner of which turned out to be my driver, then I waited a long time for a passing car.
For most tourists, Isfahan is known for its painted dishes, carpets and sweets. You can get the best experience by visiting the Grand Bazaar in Isfahan (Bazaar e Bozorg).
Isfahan - "half of the world" Isfahan is called “Half of the World” (Nesf e Jahan), and this beautiful name the city owes much to Imam Khomeini Square. The new name did not take root, as well as the old one - before the revolution, this square was called Shah Square, and people still call it Nakhsh ...
The cult of the hookah and not only As soon as I arrived in Isfahan, my friend Bahman immediately organized a tour of the evening city for me. We walked around the New Julfa district and looked at the old Armenian church, and then we went to the best teahouse in the city called “Takht e Soleyman” (...
Hitchhiking lessons in Farsi (Iranian) At dinner, I talked about how unsuccessfully I tried to hitchhike from Qom to Kashan, and how I ended up taking a bus. Due to not knowing the language, I could not talk to the drivers, so I asked them to write the proposed dialogue in Farsi.
Abyane - "a place where willows grow" (one of the versions of the origin of the name) The idea to go to this mountain village came about by chance - we wanted to find a place where you can have a good rest, take a walk and take beautiful photos.
Don't drink from my bottle From the terminal, I had to take a taxi "dar-bast", because I could not find my way in the streets. I was greeted by a hospitable Reza and immediately led to the kitchen, offering to try a delicious Iranian drink.
Away well While my letter of recommendation was being prepared at the embassy, I decided to go to the neighboring city of Qom for a week, where I planned to stay with Fatima, with whom I had agreed in advance to come.
Not far from the Pakistani embassy, next to "Park e Lale", is the "Carpet Museum". The building of unusual architecture with carpet weaving motifs - the columns symbolize the threads on the loom.
If you walk from the National Museum towards the Russian Embassy, you will come to the Museum of Glass and Ceramics. It is not at all difficult to navigate, because the embassy occupies almost a block.
Not far from st. m. Imam Khomeini is the "National Museum of Iran". All the most interesting archaeological excavations were brought here. Walk through the halls and look at the bronzes and clay work, marvel at the incredibly high quality of the stone carvings, while looking at the black dog statue ...
