Iran: Hamadan - Isfahan
oboehm, 08:33h
continued from: Kermanshah - Hamadan
In Hamadan we visited two mauseoleums: Baba Taher and Mausoleum of Avicenna. On the way to it we met an Irani who asked us on German - he had worked over 10 years at Stuttgart and was also very happy that we visit the Iran. As he noticed our leader he meant we are good guided.
On the way to Isfahan we did a stop at Saveh were we eat our melon we bought two days before. Also here we were the attraction of the village.
There were many trucks on the road when we continued our journey. For us as German tourists the overtaking on a normal road with two lanes were very adventurous. Not only that trucks were overtaken regardless opposing traffic but also trucks opens a third lane to overtake two trucks if there is no opposing traffic.
At a radar control we had luck. The police exempted us the penalty because we were tourists. And he railed against the mullahs before us who drived without any ID cards ("They believe they have control of our country...").
The Abbasi Hotel in Isfahan was stunning and well attended. In general Isfahan is a lively and very clean city. After dinner (where we had first to wait because there was Mother's Day in Iran) we visited the famous bridges who unfortunately were standing in the dry.
