Persepolis (Iran) Vacation Travel Video Guide

Travel video about destination Persepolis in Iran.
Persepolis, City Of The Persians, is located within a fertile plain surrounded by mountains in what is today the Iranian province of Fars. The ruins of the former residence of the Achaemenid Empire are one of the greatest and most impressive palace complexes in the world, with mighty gateways, extensive barracks, reception and audience halls, as well as royal palaces. It is the most important architectural legacy of the first Persian Empire which had its heyday between the sixth and fourth centuries B.C. Dareios The Great began construction of his ceremonial capital city shortly after he had attained power as Third Emperor of Persia. Although he already had two capital cities, Pasargadae and Susa, he wanted to present to the world a third impressive city. For fifty eight years, Ionic stonemasons, Babylonian brick makers, Median and Egyptian goldsmiths, worked in Persepolis and created what was an indelible symbol of the Achaemenid Empire. Today, cleared of rubble and sand, its former glory can be imagined in full: Persepolis the magnificent!

Those relief are amazing. We even can trace ancient breed of horse, cow and other animals including extinct ones from those relief since they are done with such level of detail

The old city that I love most. The visual aesthetic harmony of Greek architecture and Persian mythology. I imagine the time, women come to fill water under the brightly painted columns, children play. Horses neigh and the past is brought back to reality in the perspective of a dream.

What kind of theme song that is?! This is Persepolis in the heart of Persia! Not Giza Pyramid complex in Egypt!!!!

Persia is the cradle of civilization. They also had alphabet to write and read in Achaemenid era called Cuneiform

[amirarsalan]

The background music tends to be rather egyptian than persian yet the remaining snippets could somehow befit the reality in general terms ❤

[onlygod]

very very interesting 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚❤❤❤❤❤❤

At 4:49 and other parts too, we don't need to go deep in history like 10, 000 year old ancient sites to say those smooth surfaces on stone couldn't have been made without using machine tools ...here in Persepolis as recent as 2500 years ago, we should be wondering the same surprise too....btw what a glorious music at 0:22
