Iran, boasting nearly 30 UNESCO World Heritage sites, stands as an attractive destination for tourists interested in history and culture.
However, repeated threats from Trump during his presidency created significant obstacles for the progress of Iran’s tourism industry.
From 2014 to 2016, American travelers to Iran saw a 62% increase. But from 2017 onward, Trump’s travel ban on Muslims led some Americans to reduce their travel plans to Iran, influenced by his policies.
