Hello guys,

I've been lurking this forum ever since the Iran section was established. I guess its about time to be heard :)

It will be a shame not to post pictures for my first post. So here goes some pics of Qom (I noticed there isn't a photo section of it).

thanks for the pics.

If I had my way the city would be walled off and turned into another Vatican City.

Very nice, i loved the blue dome.

Is the weather in Qom like Tehran?

How different is weather in Iran compared to say Iraq?

Does the elevation help in making the summers cooler?
