^lol
Yazd is a very interesting city. I remember Cyrus has a similar thread a while back ago on Yazd. I once saw a TV show where an Australian guy was traveling around Iran and he ended his journey in Yazd at a Zoroastrian fire temple. I think it was on the Travel Channel or National Geographic Channel. Anyways, nice work Blackforest. |
