Iranian Historical Architecture
Iran has a hot, dry climate characterized by long, hot, dry summers and short, cool winters. The climate is influenced by Iran's location between the subtropical aridity of the Arabian desert areas and the subtropical humidity of the eastern Mediterranean area. January is the coldest month, with temperatures from 5°C to 10°C, and August is the hottest month at 20°C to 30°C or more.
In most of the areas, summers are warm to hot with virtually continuous sunshine, but high humidity on the southern coastal areas of the Persian Gulf. Daily Temperatures can be very hot; on some days temperatures can reach easily 40°C or more, especially along the Persian Gulf and Oman Sea which causes a danger of heat exhaustion
Today, Iran is the 18th largest country in the world with a population estimated at 82.01 million, of which 60% is under age 30, and the literacy rate is estimated at 86% (2017). With an area of 1,648,195 km², Iran is almost three times the size of France or slightly smaller than Alaska. The major part of the population are Muslims, and the remaining are Christian, Zoroastrian and Jewish.
