"From the Afghani border to Mashed is done in two stages, first a half hour bus ride costing 30 rials to Taybad where the Iranian customs and quarantine posts are situated. Don’t even consider bringing drugs into Iran, the penalties are very severe and Mashed has an unpleasant new jail for people who’ve tried." --Across Asia on the Cheap (Lonely Planet, 1973) |
