Ecotourism in Iran: Pure joy of staying in heavenly spots
By Trend
Ecotourism is a new kind of tourism gaining widespread currency
in Iran. People stay in the intact and remote villages, instead of
ritzy hotels, in order to spend some time away from the hustle and
bustle of everyday life, irna.irreports.
Rural tourism and ecotourism can lead to a rational understanding
of cultural and historical advantages of Iranian rural areas.
The especial architecture, untouched nature, millennia-old
structures, ancient qanats, running rivers, and high-quality
organic produce have turned the ecotourism accommodations into
outstanding attractions.
Experts say that the ecotourism accommodations are an innovation of
President Hassan Rouhani's administration. The number of the
accommodations skyrocketed from 20 in 2013 to 700 today.
Iran's beautiful nature, four-season geography throughout the
country, luxuriant forests, starry sky in the desserts, beautiful
islands in the south, and hot springs in the north and center have
changed it into an irresistible attraction for tourists.
