What our travellers think of their stay

My suggestion
Witness the love the Iranians have for their poets at the tombs of Hafez and Saadi. Take advantage of the opportunity to learn about their poetry in the adjacent museums, and discover the divining art know as 'Fal', which uses the poems of Hafez.
