Hi I wanna visit Iran. Apparently it's a very cool place with Persian culture unlike most of the middle east which is Arab, and also with awesome architecture.
But I'm worried for my safety.
Iran has overall a bad reputation. A lot of people think it's only a terrorist warzone. But apparently some travelers and some sites like WikiVoyage and other traveling sites say it's relatively safe in the last few years.
But yet my friends and family don't want me to ever visit there.
And interestingly enough, I've searched more on the Internet and when searching in French, most websites say it's not safe and they discourage any travel. Which is the complete opposite of what I search in English. So what's the truth? Is it safe or not? Maybe it's way less safe for French citizens? But the Iranian govn't (and people because of propaganda) have a way bigger problem with the US than with France, so it still doesn't explain why the results are so different.
And yeah please don't talk about corona... I don't have the money anyway and I'm not gonna travel anywhere far enough while the pandemic is still here, I just want to know, other than the pandemic, is it safe, are there a risk of terrorism and kidnapping? I only theorise to visit there in several years maybe...
And please tell me how sage it is relative to other countries. I've visited some countries that might be unsafe in some places. (I also have the Belarusian passport). I've visited Ukraine, but where there's no war / civil war. I've so visited Israel. So maybe Iran is like those 2, if you don't go in the shitty zones it's safe?
Please say your personal experiences but also facts
