	Iran, part 2 3 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		What was new for me in Iran compared to secular Turkey, is the omnipresence of "zakat" boxes on the sidewalks ("zakat", as one of the five pillars of Islam, is the donation of 20% of your income to the needy), and the additional road-signs counting down the number of kilometers to the nearest mosque.
		Neishabur was once one of the most learned cities in Iran, but today it seems little more than a provincial town.
		I had imagined this would be a very intimate moment, and that the tomb would be hard to spot inside an actual cemetery, but many dozens of people pay their respects to this gifted mathematician and remarkable poet, and Neishabur honors its most famous son with a tomb in a park.

		In 1977, I had a trip to Neishabur, KhorAsAn; and paid a visit to the tomb of attAr-e Neishaburi.
		When the motevalli of his tomb was telling me about attAr, I was remembering attAr's Mantegh-ol- Tair (Conference of the Birds), which I had read in the summer when in 8th grade, in 1965.
		It was really amazing, how much CONFERENCE OF THE BIRDS had traveled from Neishabur; in time and space, and was still as fresh as the misty morning fog.

		Families include the shrine in their itinerary when visiting Shiraz, and the gardens are a popular location for people to socialize or read from the "Divan" ("Odes") - Hafez's most famous poetry collection - while recitations are played over speakers in the garden.
		The 10th-century poet and scientist Khayyam's tomb and gardens in Neishabur, west of Mashhad in eastern Iran, equally attract thousands of admirers every year.
