Seized and burned by Alexander the Great's conquering army, shaken by uncounted earthquakes, eroded by 25 centuries of rain, fluctuating temperatures and scouring winds, Persepolis - the greatest of the royal residences of Persia - is still a remarkable ancient ruin. Yet, the place remains an awesomely impressive sight 2500 years after it was built. Even today those who set up to this gigantic terrace of 125000 square meters and see its remnant yet majestic columns, are filled with a sense of awe drifting into a dream-like trance. A dream in which one tries to visualize the beauty and dazzling splendor of Persepolitan Palaces before their sad destruction. The present package, containing this book and its companion documentary film is an attempt to make this dream come true. (with art paper and coloured pictures)
