There are some motorways around Tehran, but are there any connecting all big cities of this country? You suppose there have to be more motorways, considering the size and population of this country.

Yes. People in Scandinavia have a hard time driving when it's less snowy than this, I dont want to imagine how it feels to drive in that much snow.

some more pictures posted on the same forum:

Infact it snows in iran every year in almost all parts of the country (especially in the mountains) it is very much a normality. But this year has seen the heaviest snowfall for 10 years.
And you'll be suprised to know that Iran has ski slopes from november time to mid march aswell, which in addition to is around the fourth highest slope in the world.

This link shows more snowfall in the capital city tehran.

Nope, they have some very interesting ski resorts. Also I flew over Iran last March, mountain areas were as snowy as Alps, but also lower areas were very beautiful.

Iran looks like a nicely developed country. I really love this picture. I've always thought of Iran as a desert, and probably many people think Texas is full of cowboys.
