Walking on the Champs-Élysées avenue after visiting dozens of dazzling and famous sights of Paris, I was thinking about the stories behind this fancy town and its fashionable landmarks. Those stories have come out from plenty of novels and animations over several years of history. The same ones that we have in many places over our country, but often remain untold. I was wondering what happened to them. What were we supposed to do to promote the great Persian land over the world, in spite of the false image spread by media and politics?

About Taste Iran - Travel to Iran and Taste Experiences

It was the first spark behind the idea of TasteIran. Being ourselves world travellers, who had made their route from the Polar circle to the hot wonderland of India, and from the rosy sand beaches of Africa to the green fields of Europe, we perceived the importance of travelling through experiences, and how their memories can forever imprint someone’s mind. You can read more about the loving story behind the logo of TasteIran in the article TasteIran Logo.

We found out Iran is one of the best storytellers for those who seek for novel destinations, search for untold stories, up to see the various beauty of the snow-capped peaks, shy camels searching for water in the sandy ocean of the desert, and lush lands of the Caspian-Hyrcanian forest which cover the top of Iran with green. But we also knew a lot of things are neglected while presenting Iran, its heritage, nature, and cultural enchantments remaining a mystery for many people.
