Shiraz is located in the south of Iran and is known as the city of poets, wine and flowers. It is the cradle of royal civilization of the world and of Persian History; it holds splendor and the magnificent ruins of Persepolis and Pasargadae (550-330 B.C). The illustrious 1000-year-old city of Shiraz is a cultural centre and home to the famous mystic poets Saadi and Hafez.

It is also considered by many Iranians to be the city of gardens, due to the many gardens and fruit trees that can be seen in the city. The oldest sample of wine in the world, dating to approximately 7000 years ago, was discovered on clay jars recovered outside of Shiraz. Shiraz is an important center for Iranian culture. Shiraz offers you exquisite mosques, sacred shrines, tombs, lush rose gardens and, a short drive away, Takht-e Jamshid (which the Greeks called ‘Persepolis’)
