  • Taste of Paradise, 27 April to 04 May 2019, Iran
    1 Taste of Paradise, 27 April to 04 May 2019, Iran th 4 CLAT 2019: Taste Paradise Cultural Landscape Association Workshop & Tour 27 April to 04 May 2019, Iran Until now, 22 Iranian sites have been inscribed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List. Iran’s Persian Garden is one of the sites inscribed on UNESCO’s List in 2011. The property includes nine gardens in as many provinces. They exemplify the diversity of Persian garden designs that evolved and adapted to different climate conditions while retaining principles that have their roots in the times of Cyrus the Great, 6th century BC. Always divided into four sectors, with water playing an important role for both irrigation and ornamentation, the Persian garden was conceived to symbolize Eden and the four Zoroastrian elements of sky, earth, water and plants. These gardens, dating back to different periods since the 6th century BC, also feature buildings, pavilions and walls, as well as sophisticated irrigation systems. They have influenced the art of garden design as far as India and Spain. Persian Garden is a well-known garden style in the world. Besides overcoming the environmental restraints, creators of Persian Gardens have also manifested cultures and beliefs of people living in this land in their work; and that’s the reason orientalists have known Persian Garden a symbol of “Promised Paradise”. Persian Garden is in a great harmony with its natural and cultural surroundings and cannot be identified segregated from Iran’s characteristics and peoples’ culture and belief. Cultural Landscape Association (CLA) is planning to organize a specialized tour and workshop called “Taste Paradise” in an international level for the experts, in order to get a better global recognition for Persian Garden and the elite to know it further.

  • Iran, Gem of the Middle East
    a Iran, Gem of the Middle East Itinerary correct as at Mar 06, 2018 but subject to change. ALL flights to be confirmed. www.bluedottravel.com.au IRAN, GEM OF THE MIDDLE EAST Iranian culture is very old and considered one of the richest in the world. Religion, arts, pottery and weaving have been developed to a high degree. Ancient cultures and settlements have existed on the Iranian Plateau since the fourth millennium BCE. Many great empires came and went. In the 13th century, the Mongols invaded and killed most of the inhabitants and destroyed most of the cities. The following centuries were marked by constant wars with neighbouring states. It wasn’t until 1906 that the nation’s first parliament was established, however a coup led by Reza Khan (Shah) in 1921, toppled the government. In 1925 he replaced the ruling Qajar Dynasty founding his own Pahlavi Dynasty. In 1941 the Shah was exiled and replaced with his son Mohammad Reza Shah. The Pahlavi’s are credited with the development of Iran’s modern industry, transport and education system. They did however, with their autocratic rule, manage to alienate many of their countrymen including the religious leaders. Eventually, the Ayatollah Khomeini’s revolution toppled the Pahlavi Dynasty in 1979. Formerly Persia until 1939, the country is now officially known as the Islamic Republic of Iran. It is a mountainous and generally arid country with the interior containing a vast salt wasteland. Much of the terrain is unpassable and as such, is yet to be explored. Its population is diverse and consists of many ethnic and religious backgrounds.

  • Shabestan Menu Edited 5%
    Here with a little Breadbeneath the Bough, A Flask Wine , aBook of Verse - and Thou Beside me singing in the Wilderness - Oh, Wilderness were Paradise enow! As Omar Khayam poetically said, food plays a major role in the life of the Persian people and Iranian hospitality is famed throughout the world. Considerable time and thought is given to the preparation of meals, and the most lavish foods are offered to the guest in a show of great hospitality. The first principle of Persian cuisine is to avoid putting all one’s faith into the one ingredient, or the ‘sweet - sour’ principle. One taste must be blended or balanced the other. The second principle is that all edibles are food. Not only the grape but the grape leaf can be eaten. This leads to an enormous range of combinations The third principle is that Fruits and nuts are not reserved for desert. No other cuisine has so successfully blended Fruits and nuts into the main course of the meal. Talk on persian cuisine would not be complete if we failed to mention caviar. Persian caviar which comes from the Caspian Sturgeon is well known for its quality and is served with accompaniments of chopped egg, onion and parsely. Certainly the most traditional food in persian cuisine is rice. Delicately perfumed, it appears in numerous varieties. Mixed with herbs such as mint, saffron, cinnamon, turmeric, dill and even with fruits, including barberries, orange peel, cherries and walnuts. When rice is cooked with a mixture of other ingredients it is called polo. When meat or sauces are laid over a plate of rice, it is referred to as chello, the most famous being chello kebab.

Asst. Prof. Dr. Rafooneh Mokhtarshahi Sani Supervisor Examining Committee 1. Assoc. Prof. Dr. Türkan Uraz 2. Asst. Prof. Dr. Nazife Özay 3. Asst. Prof. Dr. Rafooneh M. Sani ABSTRACT Monumental architecture is reservoir of memories which can stand as symbol of the cities and even countries with the embedded meaning in their form and operation. This kind of structures can link the past and the future like the rings of a chain. In addition they have the potential to create and support the identity of a nation. The glory, dignity, culture, tradition and thoroughly the history of a nation can represent through the monumental structures. These structures can have variety of types including historical buildings or complexes, modern structures with advanced technology, landmarks, etc. Since during the last decades, identity crisis has been a major problem for contemporary architecture, the aim of this study is to survey the relation between national identity and monumental buildings and to recognize how monumental buildings contribute to create national identity.
