One of the gladdest moments of human life, methinks, is the departure upon a distant journey into unknown lands. Shaking off with one mighty effort the fetters of habit, the leaden weight of routine, the cloak of many cares and the slavery of home, man feels once more happy.
Sir Richard Burton

My journey in İran

December 13, 2006

İ'll enter İran by train at Razi and head to Tabriz. After long hours in the train İ'm sure İ'll be craving for a bed and a hot shower, so İ'll stay there for a night. The next stop will be in Zanjan, visiting the city and then trying to find a cheap way to get to Takt-e Soleiman a UNESCO World Heritage site in a scenic, pistoresque but remote landscape (no public transports). Generally, İ'll spend rather less time in western İran because the main attractions are best or only to be visited outside winter and rather quickly go to Teheran, spending some days in the museums and getting a good nose of daily smog.
The next stops will be along an imaginary curve from Teheran to Esfahan, Yazd, Shiraz, Persepolis, Kerman and Zahedan. This brings me to the Pakistan border which I'll cross at Mirjaveh - Taftan. Of course this is only a rough outline, the more detailed planning will be done on the train to İran and on the spot.
