Description

Ancient Persia was one of the greatest empires in history — rich, powerful, and filled with customs that might seem shocking to us today but were perfectly normal to them. From unusual laws and strict rituals to surprising habits of daily life, Persia’s world was at once strange and fascinating. Told slowly and gently, this story is not about excitement or drama, but about the quiet rhythms of a world that feels both distant and oddly familiar. Perfect for late-night listening, when the past becomes a soft background for rest.
