Communication is the tool for solving your problems, getting help, avoiding loneliness, and having a better trip in general. Meeting new people and making friends with them is one other advantage of the ability of communication which develops good feelings and experiences during your journey. The ability of communication includes not only knowledge of the language but also the culture and customs of people. Many misunderstandings come from the differences between cultures and lack of knowledge about these differences. Iran is a culturally varied country with so many subcultures in it. The reason for this status is that many nations live in this land because of the historical reasons and Iran’s geographical position. Knowing the general Iranian culture and customs can help you a lot in communication and setting your timetable for visiting. In the following, we will explain some parts of Isfahanian culture and customs:

The most important thing in communicating Iranian people is to be familiar with Taarof. Taarof is a way of acting in which people say nice things and compliments excessively and don’t accept whatever you offer them at first. It doesn’t matter whether it’s a cup of tea or a precious gift. If you want them to accept it, you have to insist. In fact, Taarof is a way of greeting and salutation for the respected guests. Learning Taarof is a little hard but being familiar with the concept helps you in understanding other people’s behavior in Iran.

Hospitality refers to the relationship between a guest and a host, wherein the host receives the guest with goodwill, including the reception and entertainment of guests, visitors, or strangers.
