I'm sure Mount Stanley is lovely, but I'd never even give that consideration, for obvious reasons.

Korean Demilitarized Zone
Yonggungsa Temple would be worth seeing round there, but that's not exactly the DMZ.

When i was seven i went with my dad to Iran for a month. He was there as a representative for the company he worked for. And that was like in a period when the relationship between Iran and the Western world was ten times worser.

Let's compare a country where there is a civil war with a country that isn't in war.

I think it's a fact to say that the media is known for blowin' everything up. I'm not saying they're making things up, but it's better to take everything with a grain of salt.

This is a perfect example of how the media has shapen 'our' image of Iran. Yeah, there are sometimes kidnappings or executions (and lapidation), but that's more in the villages that are cut off the real world and who are controlled by [insert radical organisation]. They aren't all that radical, especially in the cities and where the most tourists are, and are having it relatively good. They are also very friendly and open to tourists, and as long you respect their culture (women needs to wear a kerchief, no shoes and socks at mosques, etc.) there's no hostility at all. Maybe that's the problem with a lot of those Americans that goes there and come back whining how 'dangerous' it is there.

And yeah, they're a bit conservative when it comes to the death penalty (never witnessed one, only saw it on the tele), but that isn't really a problem for tourists.
it isn't the safest place on earth, but from all the Arabic countries is Iran (b2b Saudi Arabia) one of the least 'extreme' places. There are places where it's a no go zone, but not every Pers has to confront violence on a daily base.
(based on experiences and stories from other Pers and family i talked to, 'cause i was too young to actually experiencing that when i was there)

South Korea and North Korea are just about the most apposed nations on Earth that aren't in an active war with each other - the DMZ has been there since the 50s when the Korean War failed to unite them and left everyone very, VERY angry with each other. The DMZ creates a buffer zone which means they're not constantly lobbing grenades over the border... it's become one of the most famous military installations in the world.
