Na’in is a small town in central Iranian desert. |

With the help of tour guide and internet cafe owner Mahmood Mohammadipour (ph# +98 939 863 6090) we went on a short tour. We saw a citadel, a traditional house turned museum… |

… Jame Mosque, one of the oldest in Iran… |
… and a partially deserted side of the town. Na’in used to be a city inhabited by camel owners. With the introduction of trucks, the business of trading camels was lost. Furthermore, after the Islamic Revolution, rich people gradually abandoned their homes to blend in the working class and avoid harassment. So today many buildings are abandoned and partially collapsed. |

With the development of modern shopping areas, the old bazaar lost it’s importance and most shop keepers left. Today only a handful of businesses remain active. |
