Iran
Isfahan Imam Square is the natural centrepiece of many articles in this category, since the 32 Iran pieces lean heavily on the Persian heritage that draws curious travelers despite the geopolitical complications. Coverage extends through Shiraz and the ruins at Persepolis, Yazd mud-brick old town, the deserts and oases of central Iran, and Tehran as a working capital with serious museums.
Cultural material handles Persian poetry, the carpet traditions and how to read knot density, the long history of Zoroastrianism, and the food writing that goes beyond kebabs into the rice traditions and the herb-heavy stews. Practical material avoids current travel advice and points readers toward government sources, while covering the historical context that travelers want before any trip is planned.
