  • In the 11th episode of Paths Less Traveled - Iran, I’m taking a day trip from the grand city of Shiraz to Bishapur.
    Ancient city of Bishapur was a Sassanid city on the south of modern Faliyan in Kazerun county in Fars province and was the grand capital of the Sassanid king, Shapur I whose armies defeated the Romans three times.
    Bishapur is situated south of modern Faliyan, just off the ancient road between Persis and Elam, which connected the Sasanian capitals Istakhr and Firuzabad to Susa and Ctesiphon.
    Much of Bishapur was allegedly built by Roman soldiers taken captive after their Emperor Valerian was defeated.
    After the fascinating history, I’ll head back to Shiraz for some amazing food. I’ll visit the Shiraz institution which is Haft Khan restaurant (رستوران هفت خوان) where I’ll share Shevid Polo Ba Ghoosht (a massive leg of mutton on a bed of dill rice) with my friend Reza.
    As if that wasn’t enough, we’ll head on to Tehran Vitamin, a local ice cream shop making an amazing thick Majoon ice cream. Delicious!
    Come and join me and let’s contrast ancients sights with incredible Shiraz food!

    PATHS LESS TRAVELED
    In the late summer of 2022 I embarked on an epic road trip around Iran, during a time of unrest as protests escalated across the country.
    Covering around 6200km over 24 days, I was able to see this incredible country in a way that many are not fortunate enough to see, and to record my experiences in a way that has not been done before.
    Safety concerns meant that I had to limit my filming on occasion, and stay well away from any signs of the troubles going on.
    However, what I did see was an incredible insight. Some of the most wonderful and welcoming people, incredible history and culture, and mind blowing food.
    Paths Less Traveled - Iran is my story of my experiences, put in an in-depth series of Iran travel vlogs.

    Nice!!!!! We are so looking forward to 2 weeks in Iran during our drive around the World. I really love watching the interactions of Westerners in Iran. It is so different than our governments would have us expect. Subed to see more and learn more from your informative vlogs. My father and I love to inspire and be inspired by other travelers. As park rangers with degrees in anthropology, we are drawn toward content with information on culture, historical sites, ecology and local food. I appreciate you sharing your experience and I look forward to being here on our Drive around the world. - Bear

      Hey thanks, glad you liked it! Just be careful at the moment if you go there with the protests going on. I wouldn't travel there right now myself and did have some more uncomfortable experiences towards the end of my trip there. You don't want to be in the wrong place at the wrong time where the police may decide that you're a spy or inciting the protests. Some completely innocent tourists have been jailed for that. Anyway, I'll take a look at your channel later, love the concept of what you're doing 😊
