Pardis: Khaterate Safar — Paradise: Memories of a Trip
Isfahan: Nicknamed nesfe jahan (half the world), Isfahan is a kaleidoscopic experience. Landmarks like palaces and pavilions summon you into a whirl of geometric patterns and interlaced colors. Landscapes behold backdropped mountains and paradisal gardens. In the spring, the turquoise-dominant city welcomes the splash of almond and cherry blossoms, tulips and poppies, potted pink petunias hanging over a balcony. This ancient city, once a hub on the Silk Road, immerses visitors into its rotating rainbow. You can’t help but challenge its nickname, asking Isfahan, aren’t you the entire world?
Shiraz: Nasir-al-Mulk Mosque, also known as the Pink Mosque, located in Shiraz, the birthplace of poetry. A city where Persepolis’ proud ancient columns stand tall, just as they’ve continued to stand for centuries to greet every sunrise. In each corner of this dreamy city, you’ll find colors and patterns that are a testament to its legacy, showcased like architectural poetry, jolting the senses awake as if to say, Shiraz, while your residents are known to appreciate a good slumber, the awestruck traveler feels as though she’s been asleep her whole life and has now finally been awakened by you!
