My 12 day stay in Isfahan - Day 8 (morning and afternoon) - Isfahan - Strolling around the city - Hasht Behesht Palace; Abbasi Hotel (former caranvanserai) - The 4th of December 2017


I once more headed towards my favourite square before making my way to the Hasht Behesht Palace gardens and those of the Abassi Hotel via the Hakim Mosque and the Public Library square fairly close to them.
 
 
One can explore Isfahan without ever getting tired, at least that's what I personally feel. I was therefore never bored of coming across buildings and squares I had been to before, simply because depending on the time of day and its particular luminosity they looked as special as the many previous occasions I had seen them.





































 
 
 
The way the gardens of the former caranvanserai were tended did not surprise me. I was beginning to accept that Iranians feel for and defend nature in a way many of us  in Europe don't, despite the fact that we theorethically do. 
 
 
 
 
 


















 
 
 
 
 
I spent a rather quiet evening at home as the family  and I waited to welcome a couple of English Dutch guests coming from Teheran.
