I was watching a documentary on German red light area and then Iran's temporary marriage law, I was surprised how come is it "freedom" in the West and "oppression" in Iran while both are doing the same with little variation that Irani law says if a man makes a woman pregnant, he will be responsible for the child and keeps paying woman until the child becomes adult. May be that's freedom in the West that in red light area if you pregnant a woman, you get carried away.

It’s Iran not Persia. Altough Persia is what we call the region in Latin languages, and what Greeks, and this Romans called them, Persia is a western term. The kingdom of Persia was a western puppet, named with a western not local term. Iran is the what it is called in Farsi, and the country is called that not in the western term (which again was imposed from the west). I still use Persia for the region (as an Italian) because that is what we have been calling it for thousands of year, however the country is Iran not Persia. Just like we call the empire Parthia not Persia (1st century. Persia was another empire). The people are all, and I call all Persians, but not the country. They chose Iran, we use Iran. 😅🤷🏼‍♂️ I don’t know why had so much to say about the topic.

Any country that America do not gain economically is a target for war. Iran, Iraq, Syria and Venezuela. All these countries sell their oil internationally but have restrictions on American businesses. America wants world power and dominance and that's why they sanctions countries that do not bend to their will. If wasn't for Putin America would have invaded Venezuela already. It's sad but it's the new war strategy.

Thanks for taking the time and effort to go to our country. I hope one day our beautiful country and people overcome their difficulties (made by politicians and misinterpretation of religion) so all people around the world can go to Iran, enjoy hundreds types of attractions, make wonderful memories, and become friends with out people. Love from an Iranian-German girl.

the most intresting fact about iranians is that they are one of the few in the world that you can say have been the protagonists through out their history, atleast from what i know about it they were always the country that minded its own buisness and always been invaded and brutalized by their neigbours and to see despite all of that they are still open to them is just amazing, they are truely a fabulous nation

This was always my most favorite video of Rick Steves in all of his shows. I took three Eurail trips between '87-91, staying at the excellent "Back Door" hotels he suggested and visiting places like Lauterbrunnen, Sterzing (Austria), Brugge (Belgium) that guided tours sometimes miss. I have enjoyed four guided tours, the most recent in '17, and one experience working in Bologna Italy visiting Venice on my two weekends off, getting "Lost in Venice" like Rick recommends, lol. One day I hope to go to Iran--I got to go to classes with many Iranians and Muslims in college who came to America so they could return home and help their countries with their education, and they were so hospitable and friendly and so far from politics, as most ambassadors for their country like Rick Steve's are. The area of Persia, the "cradle of civilization" is rich in history, and taught us the value of law, and urban dwelling, and helped humanity find a home in times of famine, in their day. I one day hope to visit, though I am aging, I would find a trip there more interesting than visiting Israel, not because of dislike of Israel, just because I want to walk in the less modern places, less luxurious places, where family life can still find happiness. All my life, I have found travel enriches more than riches but I also have no problem with world leaders sharing their rich architecture since I feel such tourism opens communication.

I love Iran 🇮🇷 from Pakistan 🇵🇰. I love Rick Steve. How awesome his work is and his videos are love to watch. All the best people of Iran 🇮🇷 Salam from Pakistan 🇵🇰 All the best Rick !

This might be my favorite episode of Rick Steves' show. I am both fascinated and mystified by the Middle East, especially since I know so little and the information we receive in America is limited and skewed. It's refreshing to see an objective, respectful documentary such as this, which gives a more human look at the largely misunderstood country of Iran. I was just as surprised as Rick to see that many Iranians actually welcome Americans! It just proves that the government does NOT represent the people. Iran seems like an incredible, dynamic country and I hope to visit one day. As always, thank you Rick Steves, for your wonderful program!
