Where to Buy Iranian Money?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The \u2018Iranian Rial\u2019 is the currency of Iran, which is abbreviated as IRR [code] in the marketplace, although the \u201cToman\u201d (ten Rials) is the common currency among the Iranians and is used by them for money calculation and counting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Due to the International sanctions against Iran, it has not connected to the International Credit (and\/or Debit) Cards Network. Hence, MasterCard and Visa card are not applicable in Iran.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You may purchase Iranian Rial from several currency exchanges in Iran.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You may also bring your money to Iran in EUR or USD, Dollar or Euro and convert it to IRR at the currency exchanges located on \u2018Ferdowsi Street\u2019 at central part of Tehran. All these currency exchanges operate under the supervision of the Central Bank of the Islamic Republic of Iran; so, there is no concern about the matter of exchange.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every Season has its Charms<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As a general rule, Iran is unbearably hot during the summer months, surprisingly cold in winter and beautiful in March, April, September and October. With this being said, Iran is more or less a 365-day per year destinations, and there are benefits to visiting, no matter when you go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, if you\u2019re able to tolerate the heat of summer (which regularly exceeds 40\u00baC and even 50\u00baC), crowd sizes tend to be smaller and prices tend to be lower. Likewise, while winter in Iran doesn\u2019t allow you to enjoy spring flowers, fall colors or the correspondingly balmy weather, you can enjoy the country\u2019s surprisingly awesome skiing, which is delightfully close to Tehran.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The best times of year for the visit would be the last days of winter and the beginning of spring, together with the last days of summer and the birth of autumn. Among them, traveling in spring will coincide with celebrating the national and traditional \u2018Nowruz\u2019 festival in Iran, which is simultaneous with school closures in Indonesia. As a result, everything will be ready for an enticing irresistible journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I recommend you to consider 8-12 days Iran tour<\/a> (according to your time) for traveling to Iran. The best course for you would be surfing Tehran<\/a>, visiting Isfahan<\/a>, Yazd<\/a>, Shiraz<\/a>, and the ancient cities of \u2018Pasargadae\u2019 and \u2018Persepolis\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moreover, if you\u2019re lucky, there will still be some snow on a number of mountains in Iran<\/a>. Dizin ski resort<\/a> located at north of Tehran, is the most important ski resort in Iran as well as the Middle East which will turn your day into a special and unforgettable one!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Travel Halal<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Iran is a 100% Halal destination for those who want to enjoy their vacation without compromising their beliefs. so when they are on a tour to Iran, they do not need to ask the hotel receptionist to give them the list of halal restaurants in the city that they are staying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All the public places such as shopping malls, subway stations, entertainment centers, parks, and even mountain shelters have separate prayer rooms for men and women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is Iran Safe to Visit for Indonesians<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If you only watch Western media you might not thing so but Iran is a safe country to visit. Visitors, even Americans, will be welcomed by locals with open arms. Follow the local customs and culture and you should have a great time on your visit to Iran. Iran is a safe place to visit for Indonesians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dress Code in Iran<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It is important to respect the dress code when visiting Iran<\/a>. Generally, women have to wear clothing that conceals their body parts. Bring a headscarf and wear this the moment you step foot in Iran. When you are in public you need to have your head covered. Women should also stick to loose fitting clothing. Men have it a lot easier in Iran. Stick to pants and don\u2019t wear shorts. Long sleeves might be most appropriate in certain places but when it is hot a t-shirt is just fine. Read more\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using Indonesian Mobile Services in Iran<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You most likely use either of Telkomsel or XL-Axiataoperators, as most of the Indonesians do. The SIM cards of both operate in Iran<\/a> via roaming. However, if the cost of using your own SIMs matters to you, you may use the \u201cVisitor SIM\u201d that provided by Irancell operator during your visit here. Their prices vary depending on the talking and data amount which start at about 42,937 Indonesian Rupiah. The best places to buy these SIM cards are the international airports in Iran.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
