Today is the big day, Asareh has been going on and on about Persepolis for ages now, and today we finally visit. Now you have to think back to this time, rocking up and there are columns that looks 30m tall, horses at the gate. I mean, it’s absolutely wild. I will just let the photos do the talking here plus a wiki link.

But of course after this we headed back into town to check out the kings castle, get vip parking and enjoy the area. We also check out the classic bath houses.

And of course I got to meet up with Pajero club of Iran the Shiraz chapter, they took me way out into the proper 4wd tracks where we had a bbq and just overall enjoyed the night. a great group of people who were more than overly accommodating. all spoke english as well, it seems most can in Iran.
