The Land Where the Sun Rises
Khorasan is a land of poetry, mysticism, and music. This is the birthplace of Omar Khayyam and Ferdowsi, whose words echo across Persian literature. Visitors can savor saffron from Qaen, sample traditional Khorasani kebabs, or sip tea in bazaar teahouses where history lingers in the air. Khorasan is more than a destination—it’s a journey into the heart of history, a bridge between cultures, and a reminder of how civilizations have thrived where the sun first rises.
Khorasan’s story is woven with the threads of empires and travelers. From the ancient Parthians and Sasanians to the Islamic Golden Age, this land has been a meeting point of trade, scholarship, and spirituality. Scholars from Khorasan once carried knowledge to Baghdad, Samarkand, and beyond, shaping the course of world history. For modern travelers, every ruin, shrine, and caravanserai whispers a tale of the Silk Road.
