Iran’s ancient air conditioner

“I have water air conditioning too, but I prefer sitting under my natural air conditioning. Reminds me of old times,” Mr Saberi said, gesturing to the badgir (wind catcher) that we were sitting under. “More chai?” In the 40C summer heat of Yazd, a desert city in the heart of Iran, a hot cup of chai would normally have been the last thing on my mind. However, a glance out from the breezy shaded patio where I sat onto the central courtyard, ablaze in the glaring evening sun, and all thoughts of bidding my host goodbye immediately evaporated. I leaned back and gazed up along the length of this remarkable technology that’s believed to be thousands of years old.

Iran-Tajikistan Flights Resume

Direct flights between Iran and Tajikistan have resumed after Varesh Airlines flew from Iran's holy city of Mashhad to Tajikistan's capital Dushanbe on June 6. Varesh Airlines is a private company founded in 2018. This airline performed its first flight on October 9 last year (from Tehran to Sari, the capital of Iran’s Mazandaran Province), IRNA reported.

As a result, passengers who wanted to travel to Tajikistan had to take an indirect route to Tajikistan from a third country, which increased both costs and the flight time. The new flights from Mashhad to Dushanbe are operated on Thursdays at 9:15 a.m. local time and the return flight is scheduled for the same day at 1 p.m. The cost of a single ticket, according to Tajik Telegraph Agency, is $250.
