AZADI TOWER, TEHRAN in Iran 🇮🇷

The unique Azadi Tower is the most iconic landmark of Tehran and is definitely worth a visit during your time in the capital. Completed in 1971, it was designed by an architecture student as a tribute to the 2,500th anniversary of the Persian Empire.

This tower has a very distinct style that merges traditional Persian architecture with modern influences ⁠— you can see this quite clearly by its big iwan arch that’s covered with 8,000 pieces of white marble. Azadi Square, where the tower sits, is very symbolic too: a lot of protests happened there during the 1979 Islamic Revolution, and it’s still a popular site for demonstrations today.

You can climb Azadi Tower using the elevator or stairs to get a nice view of the city from the top. At the base of the tower, you’ll also find some galleries and a cafe.

GOLESTAN PALACE, TEHRAN

One of the top things to do in Tehran is visiting the most magnificent historical monument in town ⁠— the UNESCO site of Golestan Palace. This majestic complex was the official residence of the Qajar dynasty (which ruled Iran between 1789 and 1925) and displays a remarkable mixture of ancient Persian and contemporary European architectural styles, which characterized much of Iranian art in the 19th and 20th centuries.

Sunbathe then Paraglide Over Ölüdeniz Lagoon

Turkey's most famous beach is 15 kilometers south from Fethiye. The calm turquoise water, sheltered from the sea, with its white-sand beach rimmed by dense pine forest, is impossibly perfect, which is why people have been flocking here for years now.
