Isfahan


For travellers to enchanting Isfahan who might read my blog :

Hakim Big Bazar in Isfahan has lots of city and nomadic rugs . There is also a carpet bazar there- linking Shah Square (Naghshe Jahan square) to Hakim big bazar. Its one of the largest bazars ever to buy rugs. Its an old traditional bazar that has a roof and lots of cute old salesmen drinking tea constantly. Give them a hug for me! There are lots and lots of shops so walk around before making a choice and haggle. Don't show too excited !

If you go there eat Kabab as well with Sangak bread. Dizi (Abgoosht ) is Isfahani favourite too. Be careful not to pour Dizi over your new rug but if you did, there are really good rug repairs there .

After Dizi or Kabab , you will need either saffron ice cream or Faloodeh as dessert. Then you need a nap to be a true Isfahani ! You can have a nap on your rug!  Hah !
