Persepolis and Pasargad<\/strong><\/p>\n

By: Shirana & Mandana Salimian<\/p>\n

We were little children when we visited Persepolis for the first time and I remember how our parents showed their mixed sense of splendor and sorrow while we were walking through all those ruins which have experienced memories of 2500 years of history. I became very interested in imagining that majesty of Persian Empire and getting to know those mysterious giant structures; it was at that time which I understood why Iranians visit this grand ceremonial headquarters with a great sense of pride, and as we all know it is one of the biggest tourist draws in Iran, offering a glimpse of the First Persian Empire in 500BC. At its height, it was the greatest Empire the world had seen, stretching from Egypt to India across Syria and Palestine right up to the Danube. For the first time in history, the Persian Empire pulled different peoples into a common experience. It laid the foundations for classical civilization and the world’s most widespread religions and what else can be a good reason to get interested in such magnificent structures and culture.<\/div>\n
