Guarded Car Parking in center Marrakesh, next to the Koutoubia mosque 5 minutes from Djemaa el Fna Square, Morocco

December 6, 2007

This is a nice place where you can leave your car as long as you want. Prices are fixed on a big board so no surprises like in so many other places in Marrakesh. Price for full day and night is 36 Dirhams, around 3.5 Euros. This time while I’m in town, the car is staying there for almost 3 weeks now and no problem. There’s a 24hours guard looking for the cars.

Iran Map

August 29, 2006

This is the map of the Islamic Republic of Iran. In the map you can clearly see some important cities like Tehran the capital, Isfahan the UNESCO city, Mashhad the religious pilgrimage spot very important for Muslims, and you can notice cities in the Persian Gulf like the ones that start with Bandar (that means port). Near Shiraz you can notice the ancient city of Persepolis.

From the map you can see how rich in terms of landscapes Iran can be. In one hand, in the North of the country you have the views from the Ararat Mountain in the border with Turkey, after you have the Caspian Sea, The Gulf, The Oman Sea. You have mountains in Tehran with snow and deserted parts near the region of Afghanistan.
