Visiting Iran During Ramadan
Ramadan, the Muslim holy month, is marked by fasting from sunrise to
sunset. Ramadan naturally falls 11 days earlier each year. This year, it is
observed May 6 to June 4.
As a
visitor, you will not be expected to refrain from eating during the daylight hours
of Ramadan, however, you should certainly be considerate of people around you
who may be fasting. Watch what non-fasting locals do, and follow suit. Many
places, especially touristy ones, will have restaurants open and serving during
the day, though they may not be flaunting it. Hotels often offer private dining
options for visitors. From a traveler’s point of view traveling to a Muslim
country during Ramadan allows you to be charitable, meet gracious locals, and
taste some seriously good food. All this is fine as long as you plan your day
in advance.
