@young3ta: Iran Before the Revolution – A Lost World Before 1979, Iran was a nation walking between ancient tradition and modern vision The streets of Tehran echoed with Western music Women walked freely without veils Universities thrived Cinemas played global films Fashion was bold And ideas moved without fear Under the Shah, Iran was not perfect but it was rising Hospitals, highways, schools A growing middle class A dream to become a powerful modern nation Then came the revolution Ayatollah returned And the curtain fell Music was silenced Freedom was erased Progress replaced with fear Today’s youth look at the photos and ask Was this really Iran Yes And it could have been so much more #Iran #IranBefore1979 #Tehran #PersianCulture #IranianHistory
