Iranian Bazar, Shiraz

Dscn1952Dscn1959Dscn1957Dscn1960Dscn1973Dscn1974Dscn1983These pictures I took from Bazaar-e Vakil or Vakil Bazar in Shiraz. It is a typical traditional market place that although is busy, makes you fresh and comforted. You see history all over this place. Colors from rag and handicraft shops and smell of dried herbs from traditional spice stores.
from Top:

1) The Bazaar on it's entrance.
2) Any taste for pepper?
3) or maybe cover your table with a nice hand-made stuff?
4) These things are called "Tasbih" and people use them for prayers.
5) the small gem collection for sale
6) A little green and a small water pound. Cool to have a traditional ice-cream
7) Rags, wood works and tile works, combination of all arts.

Relax!

RelaxThis old man was taking his afternoon nap under a nice cool shadow, not paying attention to all the rush going on around him. Just across the road, people were gathering around newspaper stands looking at the headlines of presidential election. It is good to RELAX! isn't it?
