Can you hear it? The echoes of eleven millennia ago are lurking somewhere within these deep canyons… We’ve become accustomed to the ‘dramatic sounds’ whenever the name Iran is mentioned in international media: air raid sirens, breaking news of conflict, or heated political debates on television. But listen again… There is a completely different Iran. Where the dominant sound isn’t gunfire, but the rhythmic beat of the Daff drums in ancient festivals, the poetic singing of Huray echoing from cliff to cliff, and the gentle sighs of villages sleeping in the clouds.
