Things are not always as they seem - the other IranBryagh
I was truly amazed at ''the other side of Iran''. Our press shows Iran as being a backward nation with barren areas and lots of mountains. This is an eye-opener. Iran is a beautiful country.
İran'ın hep kötü yüzünü görmeye çalışıyoruz.Bir de başka yönüne bakalım.
Bizde bazıları "Sanat'ın İçine Tükürürken " İran da korunmaya çalışılıyor.
Özellikle Meryem Ana Heykeli'ne bakın.

A Torre Azadi ou Torre da Liberdade é o símbolo de Teerã, no Irã.
A torre, construída em 1971 por ocasião das comemorações dos 2.500 anos do Império Persa, foi chamada originalmente Shahyad, que significa ("memorial dos reis").
Passou a chamar-se Azadi ("liberdade") a partir dos protestos que tiveram lugar em 12 de dezembro de 1978 que conduziriam à Revolução de 1979.
Foi concebida pelo arquiteto Hossein Amanat, que aos 24 anos apresentou o projeto vencedor do concurso realizado em 1966.
A Torre Azadi combina os elementos arquitetônicos do período Sassânida e da arquitetura islâmica.
Tem 45 m de altura e é inteiramente revestida por 25.000 placas de mármore branco de Isfahan. Um museu e várias fontes completam o conjunto.
Está situada no centro da Praça Azadi , cuja área é de 50.000 m². Nessa praça aconteceram as manifestações que levaram à Revolução de 1979.
Although Tehran is not Iran, but without this great metropolis, which is the focal point of Iran’s transportation network and the center in which more than 40% of the nation’s economic activities takes place, it would not be possible to fully comprehend the ever changing Iran. Tehran is the mirror of Iran. Those who inhabit this young metropolis have come from around the country with different beliefs, cultures, languages and life styles and live in a national and international context together. It can be noted that modern societies take form in large cities, and therefore, Iran’s future is being formed in Tehran.
