Iran. The Complete History of the Country

Iran - the heir to the luxury of the Persian Empire: the blue of the mosaic domes of mosques and the shine of the shah's jewels, the intricate patterns on the walls of Surb Bethlehem and the elaborate design of... the beautiful Golestan Palace. Contradictory yet attractive, this country has captivated minds and hearts for centuries since the moment it redeemed the death of the Russian ambassador with a huge diamond. Many famous individuals have made the eastern lands known to the world, starting from the first millennia: Darius the Great, Omar Khayyam, Simin Daneshvar, Qassem Soleimani. 'First taste the pilaf, and then scold the cook,' say Iranians, who do not like to rush to judgments. And you should not rush.
