Let's take a trip! Climb into your hot-air balloon, and we’ll drop in on a country located in an area of central Asia called Middle East. Persia or Iran as it should more properly be called is one of the great civilizations of the Near East, ranking alongside Mesopotamia, Anatolia, the Levant and Egypt. From prehistoric times onwards many parts of the country were home to rich and prosperous cultures, a land of extraordinary diversity, geographically, climatically and ethnically. Iran is bordered on the north by Armenia, Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, and the Caspian Sea; on the west by Turkey and Iraq; on the east by Afghanistan and Pakistan; and to the south by the Persian Gulf. 

Thanks to the two big ranges of mountains situated in Iran, The Alborz Mountains in the north and the Zagros Mountains to the south, including the two big deserts in the middle, the country is privileged by having all sorts of beauties to its flora and fauna.  

Throughout centuries the Iranian Plateau has been occupied by different groups with different backgrounds and speaking different languages. This is reflected in archaeological records as well, which shows evidence of different cultures often with their distinctive art styles.

Hospitality is the main percept of the Iranian nations and visitors to this country will soon find these people very generous hosts.
