My wonderful IRAN trip - 4 cities in 10 days

My last trip to Iran was marvellous and a unique experience. I traveled to Teheran, Isfahan, Mashhad and Nishapour. Wherever you go, you meet nice people. The country has a vibrant young population. Fashion, arts, music and culture are prospering. Despite the difficult political situation the people are optimistic about the future. I traveled first to Teheran, the capital of Iran... The traffic is crazy... but there is much to discover. The city offers everything from traditional food to modern malls. A 20 minutes drive and you are in the middle of the mountains with green trees and waterfalls.
