Travel flashback: Golestan Palace





Some pictures from 2015 of the Golestan Palace complex in Tehran.

I read this week that it's been damaged by bombs as part of the stupid and unforgivable war we've started, and I've been looking at old pictures and feeling grateful that I got to visit Iran back when it was still doable. I've been lucky enough to visit many wonderful places, and this is still one of the best trips I've ever taken.
