What about the indoor ski area? And the islands they are building representing all the continents in the world? Got those pics?
Yep, always said it looked modern and never said they didn't have cash. But when I was there you couldn't get a magazine without all mention of Israel blacked out. You better not get caught with a Bible and you better not get caught with a beer outside one of the private clubs. And if you were a poor worker from a third world country you weren’t treated well at all.
My plane was late once, and my room wasn’t ready, but I needed to go to a meeting, so I asked the front desk to check my bag. They said leave it there. It was by the front door of the Hilton hotel. My driver said nobody would bother it because the punishment for theft was getting your hand cut off. Nobody bothered it. It was in my room when I got back.
An Iranian man married to an Italian woman I knew who lived there couldn’t go into the private clubs but his wife could have if he would have allowed it. And women couldn’t drive or be on the street without their hair covered.
I’m happy to hear all this changed.
