معنی۱
Pazirayî is one of the spaces where Iranian culture shows its hand. Even modest households keep a dedicated اتاق پذیرایی, the formal sitting room, often with the best furniture and rugs the family owns. Day to day, the family lives in the kitchen or a smaller room. The pazirayî room sits ready for guests.
