Young Captain
"Young Captain" Mohammad Harouni is a young tour leader who lives in Kong in southern Iran and shows tourists the old boat-building workshop and other sights of the area. The building of boats known as lenj in the Kong area is 1,200 years old and was registered in the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage List in 2011, but now, due to technological advances and heavy construction costs, this industry has declined and is being forgotten.
