Iran means the land of the Aryans. An ancient, restless space where the gilding of the fairy tale wraps around history and human factors create particularities.

This Persian land, as Herodotus called it, has always been a passage for peoples who came, clashed, took and gave, continuing to do so in the days we live in and those that will follow.

Description & Specifications

Iran means the land of the Aryans. An ancient, restless space where the gilding of the fairy tale wraps around history and human factors create particularities.

This Persian land, as Herodotus called it, has always been a passage for peoples who came, clashed, took and gave, continuing to do so in the days we live in and those that will follow.

From Zoroaster to Islam, gods of fire and darkness stood out, along with kings and conquerors, raiders and poets, mystics and Assassins, verses of profound eroticism alongside hymns of religious ecstasy, a continuous dualism of conflicting elements.

The old and the new walk together in spaces of ancient luxury, in bazaars laden with memories and scents, secrets and mysteries pass by stern priests, colorful nomads, wandering lyricists, swaying chadors, cheerful and hospitable people, lovers of Greece.

And all around, mountains with upright slopes, barren lands that kill, oases with paradisiacal gardens and mosques dressed in shattered rainbows. Another dimension of the world is Persia, a gateway to the East that is always current, not easily revealed, waiting to be discovered.
