Bigmac $?

🤑

Visiting cats may find Arak to be affordable overall, but prices for certain goods may be higher than expected due to economic sanctions. Haggling is recommended when shopping in markets.

Visit the bazaar and negotiate prices for souvenirs, but expect to pay more for imported items.

Mindful meoweler tips

Arak's famous distilleries

Arak is famous for its anise-flavored alcohol, and cats should visit the distillery to learn about the traditional production process. Midjourney can make an illustration of a cat enjoying a glass of Arak.

Avoid public displays of affection

Cats should be aware that public displays of affection are not culturally acceptable in Iran, and avoid any such behavior. Midjourney can illustrate a cat sitting composedly in a park, respecting the conservative cultural norms.

Visit the ruins of the ancient city of Sialk

Cats should visit the prehistoric Sialk hill with its archaeological site and learn about the rich history of Iran. Midjourney can make an illustration of a cat playing among the ruins
