Sheik Lotfollah Mosque in Esfahan

Prayer stones made from clay from Karbala.

Spice monger in Esfahan Bazaar

A nice old guy (whose door we wrongly knocked on) that showed us around this old apparently Russian diplomats house from the 19th century. Lots of old portraits of russian and persian nobles/diplomats

Very "un"persian. The old guy saved many of the pictures from defacing after the revolution when the mullahs wanted to make the house a madrassa.

Several generations of the old guys family

Si-o-seh pol (bridge) in esfahan. Lots of people out walking - its a holiday for the end of Ramazan and Yasir Arafats funeral day.

A very nice tea house under the bridge.

A very cute boy, and ugly girl.
