Persepolis

What to say? A visit to Persepolis leaves one speechless. The splendour of the site is overwhelming.
It was built by Darius I in the 6th century BC  as a ceremonial site where representatives of many nations as well as Persians came to pay their respects.
Images of those paying tribute, as well as images of power adorn the walls snd gates.
