Yaxshi verilishi hazirlamisan, amma bir sheyi anmaladim. Shah Ismayil ozu Azerbaycan Turki idi. Neye gore Persian Empire deyirsiz? O vaxti Safavid dovleti adlandirildi, Fars dovleti yox.
Iran has a rich history that had arguably defied time and space limits. Pre-Islamic Persian cultural influence is still visible across foriegn territories far and wide.
Yes it has been said that Isfahan is 1/2 of the word but my ancestral town of where my family came from about 500 years ago is Ashtiyan and make a joke translation goes like Isfahan is 1/2 of the world but.. is one 0f the villages of Ashtiyan اصل دفتری ها از آشتیان هست واین مزاح را بزرگان فامیل میگفتند؛ اصفهان نصف جهانه ازدهات آشتیانه
The mustache guys on 6:09 do look like "YENİÇERİ" or "Janissary" in English. I know that the 2 cultures lived side by side for centuries but those figures gave me a little suspicion. Can someone explain who are they?. By the way, I had no idea that my culture (Turkish) and Iranian culture are SO SIMILAR. Okay, I could guess but it is so similar. Wow.
In reality, cities outside the city use actual swords and hit themselves on the head rather than using bats. That become illegal in Iran no more than 15 years ago but some cities like Khomeini shahr still do it .
I love the culture that exists in Isfahan. A very good mix of Persian Islamic and modern architecture. Blended with some churches in the south of the city in Jolfa. Truly beautiful
"ancient bridges"? Weren't those bridges at 13:10 built under the Safavids? That doesn't make them ancient...those were early modern times. Correct me if I'm wrong.
immaculateboy also at least one of those bridges is more than one thousand years old. Can't remember the name but if you google esfahan bridges and find a list you can find it. It doesn't go across the river but it's nearby
Thanks for this. I appreciate a glimpse of where ( to me) the most beautiful of Persian rug patterns came. I wish you had more mention of those carpets than that one gets used for a ritual celebration. The rugs from here have a more flowing nature to them than other places... so beautiful.
Yeah I agree, whoever ladies from Iran I met in other parts of the world, they do not wear hijab. One Iranian friend told me, no ladies wear hijab when at home, seems like it is part of the official attire for working ladies.
Magnificent architecture and rich national cuisine! Thank you for the nice vlog review. Persian Isfahan, Shiraz and Uzbeki\ Tajiki Samarkand will stand first on my travel list next year, Insh Allah
