Each rosary has been made of 101 small beads and the main purpose of using it is to pray. Rosaries in Iran are considered to be valuable as they are used for sacred purposes. Moreover, most of the rosaries in this country are made of precious stones like turquoise or agate and therefore, will be a good choice for purchasing as a souvenir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n2.

So, we suggest you stop by any traditional shop in cities like Kashan or Yazd<\/a> (especially those which are located in Fahadan district) and choose between a thousand colorful options, each painted with beautiful designs and symbols. You can find almost any patterns you may have already visited and you can also use the small ones as a magnet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n3- Spices<\/h2>\n\n\n\n![\"Spices\"](\"https:\/\/surfiran.com\/mag\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Spices-SURFIRAN.jpg\" "\\"Spices\\"")

It may be surprising to know that almost every city in Iran has more than 5 or 6 specific types of traditional sweets which can be very different from other cities. So, one of your best options to bring back home from Iran would be buying sweets like Gaz from Isfahan<\/a>, Sohan from Qom, Ghotab and Baqlava from Yazd<\/a>, Reshte Khoshkar from Rasht<\/a> and so many other delicious sweets which can serve as your dessert when you are back home!<\/p>\n\n\n\n5.

While you are in Iran, you may forget about drinking coffee (which by the way, is also popular among Iranian people) and become a big tea drinker. So, you may wish to remember all those cups of tea that you drank during your trip to Iran by purchasing a beautiful tea set. You can also buy Iranian tea and different kind of infusions which are easily accessible in Bazaar\u2019s groceries to make yourself a memorable and relaxing drink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
