It's Holiday time.........I am so so excited and looking forward to my next 2 weeks ahead.
At the airport and ready to hop on the flight to Iran.....
Iran has been one of my long awaited destination and now is the time finally. This destination is important for me as it takes me back to my roots. I am a Zoroastrian by religion and the roots of my religion emerge from this country, though our forefathers left this place centuries ago to save the Religion from Islamic dominance.
My 15 Day tour covers the Mount Damavand, The city of Lahijan, Caspian Sea coast, Takab, Kandovan volcanic village, Tabriz, Persepolis, Shiraz, Yazd, Teheran and a lot more. Its gonna be a little hectic but I am sure I am going to enjoy every bit of it. I have been reading about the beauty of these places and now I am going to see them in real, it's so exciting.
Moreover it's been a crazy month and I desperately need a break to unwind and come back with freshness and rigor.
I am looking forward to having some local food, meeting up new people, knowing new culture and a heart touch with my roots.
The other excitement for me today is getting to see the new Muscat Airport. Our Old Airport was quite outdated and a very small one. The new Airport have been a lot in the news and considered to be an Architecture Marvel so I was eager to take a look at it. Though a lot of finishing touches are going on but yes compared to what we had this one is far superior and highly equipped with modern technology. It has a mix of the modern appearance with the mix of traditional architecture with an approach to preserve Oman's cultural heritage. I am having a pleasant experience of the new airport relaxing at the lounge. The lighting has been done very well and there are Palm tress all over which gives a good and pleasing effect.
I am not sure if I will be able to make any post on Iran during my trip, but once I am back I am surely going to share a lot of photographs and information on the place.
In the next two weeks, I will be slow in my comments and follow ups, hence please excuse me if I am unable to comment on blogs.
With Love and Angels Blessings 💖💖👼🏻👼🏻🧚♀

Thank you @c0ff33a
I'm very curious about this trip. Always wondered what it is really like behind. With your religious history, and maybe other factors, I can see why you are stoked. Would really love to hear more about your experience, and see pictures when you return.
Where are you from?
P. S: I préfer to learn this way.... Sticks permanently, when I can put a name or face to what I learnt. What is Zoroastrian?
Thats very true, when you visit a place you get to know in and out of it and also get to see the real side of it.
Zoroastrian is a very small religion our total population is around 1.5 Lakhs across the globe, and our religion emerges from Iran, there are a lot of people in Iran who still follow the religion, during the time of invasion our forefathers left the country to save the religion. The religion came into existence in around 6th century and considered to be one of the oldest I am from India @solcross.
Thanks for this. I find it interesting. Really appreciated.

Looking forward to see your Iran trip’s photogaphy and experience over there. Yeah, you know what I have been to Oman many times and I’m very happy to know about new Muscat airport. Excited to see it. Thank you for sharing and have a fun trip to Iran.
@shanu, the oman airport has come out very nice but still a lot of work remains so its gonna take some time till we see the final version of it
Thank you @nainaztengra, it must be looking beautiful. So, how’s going your Iran trip?
Are there no more wars in Iran?
@nainaztengra, Safe journey dear.
A lot of these news are falsely put up by Media @topfreeser, as of now there is no danger in visiting the place. Its a very beautiful country.
That's good to hear. Have fun then and happy weekend.
the houses on the mountain looked like in the fairy tale

oh nooo....!!! i love traveling.
Iran is also a country I want to visit.
They seem like really nice people, interested in combating Iranophobia.
Anyway, have a great time there! There is this Facebook group See you in Iran, where you can get information, they also have a hostel in Teheran http://seeyouiniran.org/
Thanx @likedeeler, yes I find them very peaceful and tolerant. Our 1st day experiences have been very pleasant and looking forward to spending good times
There was a large Iranian community in Vancouver and they were extremely hospitable. I can't wait to read your posts about Iran.
Thanx @loveself, as per my experience also they come out to be very hospitable people. Its a nice place
Wow... I've never come across a Zoroastrian before, I like you instantly already. Have a terrific stay
Thank you @empress-eremmy
Wow! Iran! Im looking forward to reading your post about that trip😀 have a great time @nainaztengra!
Thank you @cooknbake
Zoroastrian.. My very first time to hear of that religion... See thats one pf the best things about steemit. We come to learn about new thing and information that we did not even know of or think of knowing. Best kind of school acquiring information if u ask me.
Enjoy ur trip to iran. Looking forward to reading what you will be upto.
As for me, off i go (right now) to google and learn more about your religion. Knowledge is true power.
Thank you @purpletanzanite. Yes the best part of steemit is it brings people and hearts together
Are those houses real or its a graphic representation?
Good that you'll be in your dream country. Will be eager to read more of Iran Dairies.
Post of the day...
FELICIDADES @nainaztengra eres un cúmulo de ideas y disfrute de ellas. viajar y conocer otras culturas, es una de mis metas. espero que con steemit, se me haga realidad. Nos vemos en la cima.
Best of journey, have a pleasant trip!
Thank you Chetan
Enjoy your journey and have a great time. Do share pictures with us after coming back!
Thank you Rajendra
Sounds like an awesome trip. I guess I do not equate Iran as a destination place. Being from US, Iam sure I would stick out like a very unwelcome sore thumb there lol ;)
Who knows maybe some day it will change.
But Iam excited for you because I know it brings on sentimental feelings of where you have ties too :)
Hope you have great fun and as always, the photos please.
Zoroastrian ? Something new for me! I should google, very interesting!
@nainaztengra The first photo reminds me of Big Sur Coast in California. It has similar fog and topography. I hope you get visit this place. If you have the chance travel to California too :)
This sounds like a great trip. I would love to try the foods of Iran. Have a great time!
This is a land I could never visit, because of my gender and because I was born in the US, so I will look forward to your posts and photos. I wish you a safe and enjoyable trip!
