A FIRST-TIME visitor to Iran? THINGS IN IRAQ YOU SHOULD NOT MISS

For a first-time visitor setting foot in the heart of the Middle East, the distinction between Iran and Iraq's rich varieties of culture, history, and natural wonders is paramount. Iran, with its millennia-old ruins, epitomises the grandeur of ancient Persia, especially in Persepolis. This ceremonial capital invites travellers to relive an era of unmatched splendour, where art and architecture knew no bounds. Meanwhile, the poetic city of Esfahan in Iran claims the title of "Half of the World." Its vibrant Islamic architecture and the majestic Naqsh-e Jahan Square capture the imagination of every wanderer. On the other hand, Iraq, a cradle of civilizations, possesses its own plethora of historic sites waiting to be explored. Both nations, with intertwined yet distinct histories, offer unforgettable experiences for those embarking on a Middle Eastern journey. So, while you delve deep into Iran's ancient cities, don't miss out on the treasures that Iraq holds within its borders.

Here are some things you should not miss in Iraq.

Journey to Ancient Persia: Prepare for a remarkable journey through time as you explore Persepolis, the awe-inspiring capital of the Achaemenid Empire. Nestled in Fars Province, these captivating remains offer a remarkable window into the night and artistic brilliance of ancient Persia. Adorned with stunning reliefs and towering columns, it's no wonder that Persepolis has earned prestigious recognition as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Don't miss the chance to immerse yourself in history by visiting the legendary Gate of All Nations and the magnificent Apadana Palace."

The Half of the World: Known as "Nesf-e-Jahan" or the "Half of the World," Esfahan is home to some of the most stunning Islamic architecture in the world. The magnificent Naqsh-e Jahan Square, the second-largest square on the planet, is surrounded by iconic landmarks such as the Shah Mosque, the Ali Qapu Palace, and the Sheikh Lotfollah Mosque. While wandering around the city, you'll come across picturesque bridges like Si-o-se-pol and the Khaju Bridge – idyllic spots to unwind and take in the breathtaking views.

 The Heartbeat of Modern Iran: Experience the vibrant fusion of tradition and modernity in the lively capital city of Tehran. Delve into Iran's rich history at the National Museum of Iran, where you can explore fascinating exhibits. Uncover the beauty of the Golestan Palace, boasting mirrored halls and exquisite gardens situated in the core of the city. And for an unforgettable panoramic view of the sprawling metropolis, don't miss the chance to ascend the Milad Tower. Tehran is where the modern spirit of Iran truly comes alive.

 The Quintessence of Persian Landscape: When talking about Shiraz, one can't help but think of poetry, enchanting gardens, and fine wine. This remarkable city gave birth to legendary Persian poets such as Hafez and Sa'adi, whose resting places have been transformed into serene gardens. Make sure to visit these peaceful havens during your stay. In addition, don't miss out on the opportunity to explore the UNESCO World Heritage Site, Eram Garden, which perfectly captures the essence of Persian garden design.

Dunes and Dreams: Marvel at the sheer beauty of the Lut Desert, recognised as one of the hottest spots on our planet. The vast expanse of the Gandom Beryan plateau boasts scorching ground temperatures that astound even the most seasoned travelers. However, it's not just the intense heat that draws visitors in, but also the extraordinary landscapes. Prepare to be mesmerised by the endless sand dunes and the artistry of the wind-carved Yardangs—colossal ridges that add a surreal touch to this extraordinary desert.

Treasures of Tabriz Bazaar: Nestled in the charming northern city of Tabriz, this bazaar holds the distinction of being one of the most ancient and expansive covered marketplaces worldwide. Recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it's a labyrinth of winding passageways, caravanserais, and magnificent domed halls. Meandering through its bustling aisles, you'll discover a treasure trove of enticing merchandise, ranging from fragrant spices to exquisite jewellery. Immerse yourself in the vibrant atmosphere of this extraordinary place, where you can feel the beating heart of the legendary Silk Road and even collect some mementos to cherish.

A Biodiverse Coastal Paradise: For those yearning to escape the arid scenery, head to Iran's inviting northern coastline along the vast Caspian Sea, where lush green panoramas await. Towns like Rasht and Bandar-e Anzali beckon with their delectable fresh seafood offerings and serve as gateways to the majestic Hirnantian forests. These ancient woodlands, designated as UNESCO sites, have thrived for an astonishing 25 to 50 million years. Within their leafy embrace, you'll encounter a thriving tapestry of biodiverse wonders, making this coastal paradise an absolute haven for nature enthusiasts.

Embarking on a journey through the Middle East is like diving into a deeply-layered mosaic of history, culture, and natural wonders. For travellers purchasing an Iran tour package from India, Iran unfurls a canvas of mesmerising landscapes and ancient treasures. Its majestic ruins, especially in the iconic Persepolis, transport visitors back to an era when Persia was an epicentre of art and knowledge. But as one meanders through Iran's poetic streets, neighbouring Iraq beckons with its own allure. First-time visitors often stand at the crossroads of modernity and antiquity in Iraq, from the bustling bazaars to the age-old Mesopotamian sites. These two nations, sharing history yet retaining their unique identities, promise an unforgettable Middle Eastern sojourn. So, while Iran's allure might capture the heart, the soul shouldn't miss out on the myriad wonders Iraq offers. It's not just a trip, but a journey through time.

The other day, I went with my rl bff to the Jerusalem branch of the Museum of Tolerance for an exhibition on the Hamas massacre.

This is the sight that greeted us. "Esthers of the world, rise up!"

It's a poster celebrating two women whose families had lived in Iran, one is Jewish, the other is Muslim, and both women ended up being murdered due to the Islamic regime of that country, even though the Jewish woman's family had escaped Iran and fled to Israel after the Islamic revolution. The face of each girl is actually a composite, made from many smaller pictures of her people who have lost their lives because of the Islamist regime of Iran.

I knew this right away, because I have shared a piece that was done about the poster and how it came to be almost 2 months ago. 

"You don't understand!" my bff (who works as a teacher) said, all emotional, "She," my friend points to the Jewish girl on the left side of the poster, Shirel Haim Pour, "is the cousin of one of my students."

There is zero distance in Israel between us and the Oct 7 atrocities. 

We go in and join the tour of the exhibition. The guide tells us it was built jointly with Malki Shem Tov, who is a well known name in Israel, if you work at a museum. Malki founded a "creative visual solutions" company with his brother Assaf, through which among other things, they helped build many Israeli exhibitions over the years. "His son..." the tour guide starts to say and I don't need more than that for something to click in my head. I know so many of the names, faces and stories of the hostages, and so Omer Shem Tov pops right away into my mind. I didn't make the connection before, but now I can only imagine what it meant for this father to work on an exhibition that recounts, among other stories, how his son was victimized and robbed of his freedom during this massacre.

There is zero distance in Israel between us and the Oct 7 atrocities. 

The opening wall has a huge time stamp, 6:29 in the morning. 

The tour guide doesn't have to explain this number to Israelis, or why it's designed to look like an alarm clock display. We were all woken up on that fateful Saturday morning by the alarm clock of Hamas' rockets. And it doesn't matter what we thought or believed the day before, as the full scale and horror of the attack were starting to become known along Oct 7, we were all woken up.

There is zero distance in Israel between us and those atrocities. I know this, and still it strikes me, again and again.

There's an area dedicated to the pictures of one photographer who went to the south soon after the massacre. I knew some of them already, like the pic showing the bodies of 13 elderly Israelis, who were on their way to a tour of the Israeli south on that Saturday.

Some are new, like the pic of the door handle in one bomb shelter. I stop for a second, because now that I've moved into my new place, it hits me that the bomb shelter door was made by the same company. Suddenly, I feel like I'm inside the picture in a reality where the terrorists took a slightly different route on Oct 7. The door was photographed from inside the bomb shelter, and the bullets that pierced it, they had to have hit the personal holding it shut. The handle has blood stains on it, and it's broken off. I can only imagine how many hours this person held, and how much force they had to use, for that to happen. I know one thing, even without knowing exactly who this bomb shelter belonged to... If this person was on their own, they would have probably ended up surrendering rather than keep fighting to hold on to the handle this desperately. This was likely someone trying to keep their family safe. 

One note retrieved from the body of a terrorist is on display. It says everything about the motivation of the monsters who committed these atrocities, and every word is purely motivated by antisemitism and religious zeal. The note is actually not in Arabic, as it may first appear, it's in Farsi, the language spoken in Iran, hinting at the source, the Islamist regime there, which doesn't care about the liberation of anyone, it aspires to create a global network of fanatic terrorism.

The translation: "You must sharpen the blades of your swords and be pure in your intentions before Allah. Know that the enemy is a disease that has no cure, except beheading and uprooting the hearts and livers. Attack them!"

There is a section dedicated to women's stories. The exhibition visitors spread out to watch the testimonies, each on a separate screen. It's a not like a forest, you can't really see it for the trees, and it's another moment of feeling overwhelmed because we can't truly get it. It's just not comprehensible, facing so many stories about intentional, face to face cruelty, brutality, sadism and joy in it. Mali Shoshana tells the story of how she tried to play dead while lying shot in a pool of her own blood, but her body wouldn't stop shaking, so she somehow turned on her side to the wall and knocked her injured knee against it, causing herself to pass out from the pain. It saved her life. Ricarda Louk tells the story of the last message they got from her daughter Shani, trusting she was right and there was nothing for them to worry about. Then Ricarda's son started screaming and crying, because he saw the same vid many of came across on that day, of his sister being dragged into Gaza stripped down, mutilated, abused, molested and humiliated, while Gazan civilians were celebrating the public degradation of her body. And there's more and more and more. "You can come back and continue to listen," the guide promises as he moves us to the next segment, but the truth is no matter how many stories I've listened to and absorbed, it still doesn't feel like enough.

There is a wall with the head shots of the victims in Israel who lost their lives due to this war, whether they were murdered on Oct 7 or since, but it's only been updated up until Mar 27 of this year. Even so, no matter what angle I tried, I couldn't fit in all of the pictures.

Interactive screens allow a geographic telling of the massacre's story. They show maps of Israel's south, with dots on them, red for the murdered, dark blue for hostages, bright blue for hostages who have been returned, grey for the injured. You can tap a dot and read a story. Or you can zoom out and try to comprehend how is it possible for there to be that many dots on the maps.

"From darkness to light," reads the exhibition title. That's the perception of time in Judaism. We always move from darkness to light. And there's a section for the light, for stories of resilience, of bravery, of rehabilitation, of mutual support and caring. Filmed interviews that do their best to summarize an incomprehensible amount of good we've seen in response to an incomprehensible amount of evil. It features people from every demographic in Israel, and in that way also serves as a reminder of just how diverse we are as a society.

This part, I think to myself, was included for visitors from abroad. We Israelis, we know.

There's one story I know already. Tomer Greenberg, an Israeli officer, rescued on Oct 7 baby twins from the carnage. He was later killed fighting in Gaza. Like a puzzle, I've heard this story from several angles, including from Tomer before he died. This movie features an interview I hadn't heard yet, with the volunteer paramedic that Tomer handed the twins to. Shalom, this medic, talks about how they clung to him desperately as they got to be fed and feel safe and cared for again for the first time in what's estimated to have been 14 hours. I'm sitting there, thinking of those babies crying, not understanding why their parents aren't coming to feed them, and I don't know how to deal with this.

Shalom shares that the experiences of Oct 7 have inspired him to try and become a combative soldier, something that wasn't on the cards for him before that. I wonder again at people who can act like subjecting an entire (already traumatized) society to a sadistic massacre can liberate anyone.

And I understand Shalom fully. When your family is in the pits of hell, there's nowhere you want to be other than there, with them, doing what you can, rather than sit and watch helpless from afar. Most people would say he did a lot on that day. Shalom must have felt like that still wasn't enough.

At the very end, visitors are invited to add their own little piece of light, through neon notes and pens on which they'd share their thoughts. Nothing feels like it can sum everything I'm thinking and feeling up, but not writing anything feels worse, so my bff and I add a few of our words to the notes.

I don't have any profound conclusions for this post anymore than I did for my note. I just know that this still hurts, that we're still losing people daily, that we can't begin to heal, because we're still in the middle of the wound being inflicted. But I also know that we WILL heal, that even if the wound can't be closed yet, our collective immune system kicked into action on Oct 7 already, that we will continue to share the pain and the comfort and the care, and this massacre and war will probably never stop hurting, that we'll never be the same, but eventually we will be alright. Where people choose to care, there's just no other option.
