Description

The Muslim faith has had an enormous impact on Iran’s history and culture. Iran the culture features the traditions and celebrations of Iran’s largely Muslim population, as well as the architecture, painting, and poetry of both ancient Persian and Muslim influence. From the ancient craft of Persian rug making to the construction of beautiful Mosques, Iran’s long cultural history is revealed.
