    I was Very very sad to read this as a Parsi I love Persia & would love that Iran be Proud of its old monuments and Heritage

    A Parthian Dynastic Edifice has no religion , no caste, no creed ..no Dogma . all it shows is the Glorious Past of Iran and if they would have maintained it the way it should , It would have Guaranteed the Glory of the Future

    May Ahuramazda , God Allah ..Yezdan Hu Preserve the Glorious Heritage ..May No Taliban destroy this
