Isfahan - Religion and Harmony

While we were at the largest mosque in Iran, one that dates back to the 9th century, we came across a visiting entourage of Greek Orthodox priests, accompanied by a local religious cleric. Good to see that sort of religious harmony!

Iran has such a negative image in our countries, not entirely their fault. It was refreshing to see that today and also a large working Armenian Vank cathedral, a presence that would not be tolerated in some other Islamic countries. Unfortunately our program to day clashed with an Armenian saint commemoration and the Cathedral was shut.
