Iran (1)





















My eldest brother and sister-in-law had a tour in Iran (伊朗) in November, 2007. They first took a plane to Doha (多哈), Qatar (卡塔爾) and changed a plane to Tehran(黑蘭), the capital of Iran. The weather there was sunny and dry.

Before the plane landed, all the lady passengers and air-hostesses had to wrap themselves up with long sleeves, long trousers or cloths of any kind over the body and hair, except the face. The males were better, but they could not wear shorts.

Iran is a rich country, so its hotels are first–class.

My brother and sister-in-law visited mosques with towers, a summer palace where they found beautiful mosaic walls and ceilings, baths with hot springs. The people of Iran love Persian Cats, so inside the palace there were statues of these lovely cats.
