The ancient city of Persepolis is in ruins nowadays, but it makes for probably the most attractive sight of Iran.
As I tried to imagine the complex as it supposedly has been so many years ago, I felt very small. The columns held ceilings of around 60 metres high. Many parts were covered in gold, enamelled bricks in luminous colours. Fortunately we had arrived early, so we could relax and let the immensity of what this palace had once been, sink into our conscience. Looking at the sculptured humans, animals, flowers, but also the various ancient scripts, could only make us aware of the greatness of this place.
