Tabriz – I'm Totally Smitten!!!

Initially just a transit stop for my overland journey, Tabriz turned out to be the highlight of my Iran trip! From its warm locals to breathtaking sights, this city is an absolute must-visit. 🏔️ Kandovan Village 📍 Snapp ride from downtown: ~1.2M rials (≈¥18, 1-hour trip) 🎫 Entry fee: 200K rials This 700-year-old cave village feels like stepping into a fairytale! The cone-shaped houses—carved from volcanic rock and eroded by water over centuries—are mind-blowing. Locals are incredibly kind, and food prices are refreshingly honest. 🏡 Darya Hostel & Guesthouse 💰 $13/night (twin room) Run by an 85-year-old world traveler, this spot is a gem! The owner shares fascinating stories from his youth and offers endless local tips. Clean, cozy, and popular with Chinese backpackers—no wonder it’s a favorite! #IranTravel #TabrizLove #HiddenGems #CaveVillageVibes ✨🏜️
