Iran Hotels by HotelTravel.com
Iran is one of the biggest Islamic countries in the Middle East. It shares borders with seven countries and has coastlines on two oceans to the north and the south. North of Iran is the Caspian Sea, and to the East it is bordered with Turkmenistan, Afghanistan and Pakistan. Its southern coast is along the Gulf of Oman and the Persian Gulf; to the west is Iraq, Turkey, Azerbaijan and Armenia.
With a vastly varied geography that includes snowy mountain peaks and kilometres of coastline, the country offers an exciting range of possibilities when it comes to sporting, activities and sightseeing. One of the most appealing attributes of Iran is its deeply ingrained Persian heritage and the hospitality of its people.
For those who enjoy snow sports Iran offers high class ski resorts set in the mountains. If heat and sun is your preference, many high-class resorts are available for relaxation and swimming. If shopping is your thing, there's plenty to offer in one of the modern, air conditioned malls, whether for internationally-branded products or locally made goods.
Iran is a treasure trove for those who love the culture and charm of the Middle East. With many well preserved mosques, castles and other interesting architecture, visiting the country is like truly stepping back in time. UNESCO supports many sites in Iran, to keep everything preserved and well maintained to an international standard.
