No landscape day 151 Qazvin - Buin Zahra

Today: no landscape. Really, no landscape at all! Just following a very straight street through a plain. Very plain. No hills, no trees, nothing. Pretty boring actually. The only excitement came in the late afternoon. We decided to try our luck with camping and just wanted to go quickly into the city center of Buin Zahra to shop for some food - however wherever we stopped a crowd surrounded us and started talking to us in Farsi or more-or-less understandable English. Most of them were actually very nice but it took us a long time to get out of town. So we put up our tents during sunset just beyond the city limits close to the highway. We cooked pasta with pretty good aubergine-garlic sauce and after dinner soon retreated to our tents because outside it was just getting too cold. Let's hope it won't get too bad tonight.

  1. Hi Marek,
    If you have time, you can also have a short visit of "Nazarabad", a small city located between Qazvin and Tehran. It hosts oone of the oldest human civilization in Ozbaki hill.

    Good luck,
