We start a two-part series about one of the most perplexing countries in the Middle East on this week's Travel with Rick Steves.
Rick learns about the culture, politics, and people of Iran from two Iranian-American experts, a journalist and a professor. Their recent books deal with the conflicts within Iranian culture, and on how the pressures of globalization help to feed terrorist sympathies among some traditional communities.
