Photos of Iran #2

by Laura Beauchamp

Here are some more shots of Iran. Enjoy.

The mag­ni­fi­cent walls of the Ali Qapu Palace in Naqsh-e Jahan Square in Esfahan.

The ceiling of the outdoor patio of Ali Qapu Palace in Esfahan.

Chris enjoy­ing a break on the Palace patio. Esfahan, Iran.

I love the detail. Here is an example of the excel­lent crafts­man­ship in the Palace. Esfahan, Iran.

This mosque is found in Naqsh-e Jahan Square in Esfahan. Back in the day only women could worship inside.

Yazd, Iran

Chris wanted to take the picture from the perfect angle, but his guy beat him to it.

Laura trying her best to help keep the his­tor­ical fort of Shiraz from falling.

Checkout the man­nequins of Shiraz. This wasn’t even the best of them. Lots have real eye lashes, eye liner and hair styles ranging from the 1950’s greaser to 1990’s raver.

This lady befriended Chris and I on the bus from Yazd to Shiraz. She even gave me some hair clips and wanted a photo taken with me.

Here I am mod­el­ing the hair clip the lady gave me. Unfortunately it was so big it didn’t fit in my bag (wink) so I had to leave it behind.

The court­yard of our hotel in Yazd, Iran. It cost ~$40 CAN/night.

Beautiful Yazd, Iran.

Have you ever seen such a huge meat rotis­serie? This was in a place called 110 Burgers in Shiraz, Iran.

A typical Iranian hotel break­fast con­sists of a hard boiled egg, cream cheese, thin bread, jams and tea.

Here’s proof that we have sent post­cards to LOTS of people! This is only the batch of post­cards we mailed from Iran. To date, we’ve sent post­cards from Turkey, Italy, Morocco, Romania, Iran and Thailand. Hope you guys have enjoyed them! If you haven’t received one it’s prob­ably because I don’t have your mailing address. All you gotta do is send it to me and a post­card will be coming your way.
