🇮🇷 Where Vultures Cleaned the Bodies of Dead | 15

Hidden in the Deserts of Iran is the ancient Silk Road city of Yazd. Teeming with history, it was one of the strongholds of the Zoroastrian religion, featuring the Towers of Silence, an ancient burial ground where the dead bodies were reclaimed by nature and fed to the birds. Among the most beautiful sights are unesco Persian Gardens, palaces, ancient mosque and elaborate system of water canals supplying the desert city from water sources 80km away, all built hundreds of years ago 00:00 - Trailer 01:05 - Plan for the day 01:29 - Iranian Bread 02:07 - Qanats (Ancient Water Channels) 04:51 - Bazaar Roof Secrets 06:22 - 400 Years Old Water Reservoir 10:03 - 70 Year Old Sweet Shop 11:02 - The Towers of Silence 15:22 - Unesco Dowlat Abad Garden 17:58 - Jame Mosque of Yazd 20:25 - Fire Temple
