Once there stood a Tree of Knowledge of good and evil in the Garden of Eden. God said to Adam, You shall not eat from it's fruit. But Eve did. It's fruit was the Phyrrus Cydonia. Persia has the same root as Peru, Phyrrus Cydonia or Paris. Iran http://mactonnies.com/imperative25.html Peru http://www.enterprisemission.com/ArtTrad.html Cydonia...
Conclusion Iran is not a medieval country where people ride on camels. Instead of this you can drink water from the tap, they have modern H&M fashion stores and the Iranians listen to Iron Maiden, Metallica and Amy Whinehouse. There is a very big generation gap. The young Iranians are very Western oriëntated. But there is still the...
Off topic before I do my last Tehran post but there is a strange kind of physics behind an eclips >>>

At the airport, when I almost stepped into the airplane, I met with the 1ste pilgrims who went to Tehran to visit the grave of Imam Khomeiny. And they were Dutch women.

Verhalen worden hier vertelt tot diep in de nacht om vervolgens weer wakker...

I did it in Oslo, Stockholm, Sint Petersburg, Dublin, etc. The books give an impression of what's up in the atmosphere of the city. Tehran has a nice Library which is situated in a museum. I won't find other tourists here. I have clearly a...
