Az diyār-i Vāyking-hā tā Qafqāz: Yāddāsht-hā va parseh-gardī-yi farhangī darbārah-yi shahr-hā-yi jahān Persiska (Farsi) 2026

From the Land of the Vikings to the Caucasus, by Reza Najafi, is a collection of travel notes and essays recounting the author’s cultural, social, and historical experiences across various cities and countries. The book presents travel not merely as a movement through geographical spaces, but as an opportunity for understanding people, cultures, and the process of rediscovering oneself.

With a personal and cultural perspective, Najafi travels through regions of Europe and the Caucasus, recording his observations of urban landscapes, people, history, art, architecture, and ways of life. From Venice and Portugal to Romania, the Czech Republic, Poland, Germany, France, Denmark, Finland, England, and Georgia, each destination becomes an occasion for reflecting on cultural diversity and the experience of living among different worlds.

The author presents travel as a path of discovery: an encounter with unfamiliar places that can lead to a deeper understanding of both individual and collective identity. Combining travel writing, cultural observations, and personal reflections, the essays invite readers to accompany the author through the streets, cities, and human experiences of different lands.

From the Land of the Vikings to the Caucasus is a work for readers interested in travel literature, cultural geography, urban history, and narratives in which journeys become a means of exploring both the external world and the inner dimensions of human experience.
