Maybe the most suprising thing about the Tomb of Cyrus the Great is that today is seems to be in the middle of nowhere. And of course that these stones are still on top of each other after some 2500 years.

Nagh-e Rostam. The Roman Emperor captured by the Persian King.

Unicorns. An interesting change from the Greek versions.

Iranians like covering their women… this is some 1300 years before Islam!
