Tehran - Holy Shrine of Imam Khomeini.
With thanks to Rudi Lekens.
It was forbidden for me to enter with my camera.
I left Tehran after about a week there. I was sad to leave but was eager to get on the road again. On the bus to Qazvin, a young girl sat down next to me. A bit surprising considering how bus drivers always re-arranged the passengers so the genders didn't mix. I noticed that this girl was fairly liberal as her headscarf wasn't pulled all the way to the front.
She took out her English workbook, looking over the text. I tried correcting one of her answers, but she replied coldly that the answer could be either one. It obviously wasn't but I didn't push my case.
I then took out my guide book to figure out Qazvin. It didn't seem like much. Some monuments here and there, but most people went to the surrounding mountains for ruins. It was too cold to do that I thought. She started talking to me after seeing my guide book, asking if I were a tourist. She thought at first that I was one of the foreign students from China studying in Qazvin. She seemed much friendlier after finding out I was American.
She complained about the English language, wondering why there were so many adjectives to remember. I suggested that she just remember the few important ones, then move on to the harder ones as she became more fluent. She wanted to become a flight attendant thus needed to learn quickly. I thought her English was fine.
She then complained about boys, especially why we were so into sex. I didn't have much to say, I didn't want to offend her or have other passengers think I was out of line. All this time though, I couldn't stop thinking why she talked about sex non-stop if she wasn't interested in it at all, as she had said earlier.
