look! first glimpses of Tehran aaaaand the second glimpse of Tehran some mosque being repaired beautiful trees that lined the road on the way up to the shah's palace a cool old mercedes one of the many buildings in the complex pretty girl and her mom. the conservative and the more modern dress trying to squeeze the enormous entry room into the shot rawr. probably the first one of these that ive seen that is real. panoramic shot of one of the rooms inside the shah's palace. a dinning room? very big. this how we do ornately done wood work "traditional music performance," i like this one in particular my brother and cousin with an old carriage showing off lamp posts? check out this fresh Paykaan! ow! Ash, chai, chartoot, oh my! lavashak! imagine fruit role up, but all natural and non manufactured. so delicious. Ash, a sort of herb, noodle soup/stew. and beats, im not sure exactly how these are prepared, simmered, boiled, stewed? not sure what i was trying to do. perhaps just posing for my cousins? the back of an OOOOOOOLD bmw that was always parked on our street dried fruits and nuts at Tajreesh, one of the older markets/bazaars of Tehran inside one of the enclosed areas of Tajreesh A mosque whos name i am forgeting, it is right outside of Tajreesh, you cant miss it! another shot. It was undergoing some renovations on the outside, still quite impressive. The inside was amazing, yet i did not want to take pictures inside and risk looking like even more of a tourist. GORGEOUS on the inside! a fountain outside where people do "woozu" the washing up before prayer more from inside Tajreesh down the street from Tajreesh, a shot looking at all the traffic, always a lot. the road signs around Tehran all look like this, well, all the new ones. notice, theres also signs pointing to nearby mosques. a car just like mine! quite rare Masjid-e-ghoba waiting, or maybe after, the group prayer. listening to the talk by the imam. i was taking pictures ealier inside, and this kid comes up to me and asks if im a journalist. "just a tourist." and he says its ok and leaves. im not sure what the deal is with journalists, but tourists are welcome! posing for pictures. one of the many open streams around tehran that chanel the water that runs off from the mountains taking a walk with my cousin around the neighborhood i saw these spread around neighborhoods, still not 100% clear as to what they are for yes, it snows in Iran. whos coocoo for coco puffs??? the only bomb i ever saw in Iran. iranian cemetary for Cassiano. school supplies store, where all the girls hang out! a church! spotted along one of the more dense areas of the city another mural. I only ever saw these along one of the main highways of Tehran, its not such a common sight. shot on the street, look at the people! just like us!! murals, murals, murals. usually glorifying the current government of Iran while preserving the memory of soldiers who died fighting in the 8 year Iran-Iraq war. movie poster Ali, we saw pictures of this man everywhere!!! daft, sort of like a large tambourine inside a music store, these are santours some school children not a common sight, nor does it seem to represent the attitude of the general populous. beautiful Tehrani girl enormous meat grinder
