I grow up in a natural beautiful place (Zagros mountains) and I would like to present my hometown to other people from different parts of the glob.

We are going to offer our guests to experience the entire life of the Bakhtiari people.
Guests are invited to nomadic mournings and celebrations. They will climb the slopes of the mountains and pick up medicinal plants together with young Bakhtiari girls.
They will experience walking in the desert along with shepherds and eat food next to them.

We offer our guests to tie “Gabbeh”and “Klims” which are the traditional hand woven rugs crafted by woman. This type of rugs are popular among the populations of the Zagros Mountains of Iran.

Overnight, in the silence of the mountains, they listen to the old man playing “Ney” and “Sorna” one of the oldest musical instruments still in use, telling them stories about fairies and their amazing experiences of encountering the mother nature and get to know their beliefs about the birth of a new baby and their traditions.
