Tajrish & Darband... What's Affluent Northern Tehran Like?

In the 19th and final episode of Paths Less Traveled - Iran, I’m back in Tehran and staying in the affluent north of the city before leaving.
I’ll stay and begin in Tajrish (تجریش), exploring and shopping in the Tajrish Bazaar (بازار سنتی تجریش) as well as visiting the beautiful Imamzadeh Saleh shrine (امام زاده صالح).
Next it’s off to see how the Pahlavi royalty lived at the Saadabad Palaces in the Saadabad Historical Complex (مجموعه فرهنگی تا‌‌‌‌ریخی سعدآباد) where we visit the White Palace, the Green Palace and the interesting Omidvar Brothers' Museum (موزه برادران امیدوار) dedicated to a couple of Iranian brothers, Issa and Abdullah Omidvar, who started a journey to travel the world back in 1954!
After the palaces we’ll head up to Bame Tehran (بام تهران) for incredible views over this huge city.
Then we head into Darband itself. Cool and nestled in the mountains with folks selling preserved fruits on the street, we go all the way up to the amazing Koohpaye Restaurant (رستوران کوهپایه) which I learnt about from watching Mr Taster celebrate his blue tick on Instagram there!
Come and join me for the end of this epic trip, and goodbyes to the beautiful people of Iran.
Iran is NOT it’s leaders! This was the real Iran - the people, the history, the culture and the food.

Brilliant series mate! What an amazing country and friendly people

[@ChrisKermis]

Thank you! It was an amazing adventure!

[@KBreezyENT]

Great series! I’m Iranian-American and have visited Iran many times and it never gets old!

[@ChrisKermis]

Thank you, glad you liked it!

[@dannyg8032]

​@@ChrisKermisThey are in better times Chris, they are not puppets of the US and UK anymore, although the americans and the brits still try to destabilize and destroy the country from the interior, this is why they finance terror and extremist groups like Mojahedin'e Khaled and Komala to create chaos in the country, under the pretext of "protests" which have as an ultimate goal a civil war and the partition of Iran.

[@mariammmimaginarium]

Chris, I am binge-watching your entire Iran series. I'm finding them *incredibly* helpful 🤩 I've been planning my first ever visit/road trip to Iran for over a year now, and I'll finally be there next week!

[@ChrisKermis]

Awesome! Glad you’ve liked them and have a great trip! Stay safe!

[@Taco-C]

You have made a beautiful video again. Iran is so beautiful and colorful. Lovely and interesting people, good food, historical buildings, markets/bazaars and culture. Thanks Chris, enjoyed it! The next trip is to South East Asia?

[@ChrisKermis]

Thank you! It was amazing but I'm happy it's come to it's conclusion now on KZbin. I'll take a break for a couple of weeks now before the next and am currently doing some filming in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, a city I've been to a few times. There won't be a Paths Less Travelled season 2 from this, But I have some ideas for that in the future.

[@TEG221]

Always calming my mind whenever i watch your video's! Takes away the stress! thanks Chris.

[@ChrisKermis]

Thank you! The end of what seems an intense video series to me. More to come from many different places

[@TEG221]

As someone who recently started learning farsi this series made me even more excited to visit Iran at some point, also the way you talk is very chill and entertaining, please keep up the good work!

Come again ❤

[@mistervanoot]

I only recently 'discovered' your channel and have just finished the entire Iran series. Thank you so much for this - it gives a view of the country that is so under-reported, and I found it fascinating, informative and - of course - lovely to look at.

[@ChrisKermis]

Thank you, I’m glad you enjoyed it!
