Asia here is only referred to Southern Asia and the rest of Western (Middle East) and Central Asia. I have separated SouthEast Asia and East Asia with different links here.


many of the banknotes posted here do not need descriptions. the designs are beautiful enough for me to add any more details - a picture is worth a thousand words

..Iran - 500000 Rials ND2018 Emergency Cheque**

 جمهوری اسلامی ایران
Islamic Republic of Iran

Central Bank of the Islamic Republic of Iran
Currency : Rial (IRR)

This is a 500,000 rials reportedly issued in nd2018. This is an emergency cheque issued due to shortage of high value currency.
 
On the front, it depicts the Dome of Imam Reza Mosque and a minaret. The Imam Reza mosque is situated in Mashhad. There are eight minarets in this mosque all built at the height of 135 feet.

Mount Damavand is a snow capped mountain situated northeast of Tehran. The mountain is surrounded by hot springs and is still considered to be an active volcano. I am not sure if there are any proper roads built that can take you all the way there. The mountain is located approximately 130-140km from the capital city of Tehran. The mountain is about 18,400 feet tall and I believe during the winter time, the entire mountain is covered with snow. Whilst we may have heard of the world famous Mount Fuji in Japan, this mountain in Iran is about 6000 feet taller than Mount Fuji.
