VISITING A ZOROASTRIAN VILLAGE IN YAZD: An introduction to Zoroastrianism in Iran!
We travelled to Iran at the beginning of September 2022 before protests and civil unrest began in Tehran on 16 September 2022 following to the death of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini. Our thoughts are with the people of Iran during this time and we feel incredibly thankful to have visited and experienced the amazing hospitality and culture of Iran as New Zealanders.
We had a VERY special outing in the Iranian city of Yazd that was something a little bit different... In Yazd we met up with our Iranian friend named Hasti. She invited us to meet her and her Dad and go a bit of an adventure in their beautiful hometown...

In this episode we head just outside of the city of Yazd to visit one of the last remaining - and very traditional - Zoroastrian Villages of Iran.
Thanks for watching! :)

My great grandfather was a Zoroastrian from a village in Yazd, he moved to India a 100 + years back and over time him and many others were absorbed by the Parsis (Zoroastrians of India). I often wondered what his home looked like, and how life was for him and my ancestors. This gives me a small idea of how it was. Thank you.

I met a Zarostrian Indian couple in Toronto, I was amazed that my culture traveled that far back then. They were both so classy and pure. I respected Indians more after that and we all need to keep our eyes open and get our head out of sand. People are just people. Love is all we need

Zoroastrians refused to convert to islam, they were subject to impoverishing taxes, discrimination and lack of opportunities, thats why most of the moslems today in Iran converted. Those who still remain Zoroastrian, are some of the bravest people in Iran today and God Bless them for it

Parsi means Persian. Persian is the dominant ethnicity of Iran. The faith you are referring to is "Zoroastrianism". Zoroastrianism still has a lot of influence in Iran, and the language and Iranian New Year is based on it. Cheers.
A lots of love from Bangladesh ❤️🇧🇩

No it wasn’t. It was the same as other religions.
Both my late parents were from a village which is less than 1 km from the village ( Mobrakeh ) which you are seeing in this video, by the name of " Cham " and there is a Holy Cyprus Tree which as per my knowledge is more than 1,500 years old and is the 2nd Oldest Cyprus Tree in Iran.
