Today, tourism is a major source of income for many countries, and affects the economy of both the source and host countries, in some cases being of vital importance. International tourist arrivals surpassed the milestone of ۱ billion tourists globally for the first time in ۲۰۱۲ and International tourism receipts grew to US۱.۰۷ trillion in ۲۰۱۳. In this industry, Marine and coastal tourism has been the fastest growing in the world. This large market is not equal among world countries. Development of tourism in the countries depends to different factors that the most important is political ideology. The political-economical atmosphere and even social and cultural aspects a country impress from state’s political ideology. The tourism as a social-economical phenomenon a lot of is affected from the political ideology. Stagnancy or strenuous this industry a lot of depends on to it. Iran is one of the oldest world civilization and countries. Iran is vast country and the landscapes of Iran are diverse. Iran has diverse climates and more than ۲۷۰۰ kilometers beach. So, this country has a lot of touristic attractions. But, Iran does not have fit rank in attracting international tourist and receipts in region and world. The problem of research is that what has affected Iran’s political ideology on its tourism industry. Why Iran has not any notable contribution from the world market of tourism, although it has a lot of environments and historical-cultural attractions.   Methodology Political ideology is independent variable and tourism industry is dependent variable. The data of research gathered from national institutes (the center of Iran statistic, parliament of Islamic council and the ministry of culture and Islamic guide) and international organizations (World Tourism Organization, World Travel and Tourism Council, Henley & Partners institute). Iran’s data compared with touristic centers of the periphery of Iran (Turkey, Dubai and Egypt) by comparative method. Other parts of research used from contain analysis method for analysis of the ۵-annual Plans of Economical, Social and Cultural Development of Iran Islamic Republic, the Outlook Document of Iran Islamic Republic in ۱۴۰۴ and some others documents and laws.   Result and Discussion Iran has a lot of touristic attractions such as cultural, historical, religious, coastal, maritime, natural attractions and climate diverse. Iran inscribed on the World Heritage List of UNESCO more of its periphery countries. Therefore, Iran is one of the countries full attractions in the world especially in Middle East. But there are various attractions in a country are not enough for development of tourism industry. The rival countries of Iran (Turkey and Egypt) could gain main percent of world market of tourism. Even small territory of Dubai that has not any cultural, historical and climatic attractions, by select fit polities could gain main percent of tourism market of Middle East. Iran was the first country in Middle East that made a decision and planning for attracting international tourism from ۸۰ years ago. Iran attracted the highest percent of international tourists in Middle East in middle ۱۹۷۰s. But suddenly was decreased the international tourism receipts after Islamic revolution in ۱۹۷۹ and continued by Iraq – Iran war. In this time, regional powers of rival Iran such as Turkey and Egypt even Arab United Emirates (Dubai) grew very fast in tourism industry. So, Iran lost geopolitical supremacy in regional tourism.       The survey of basic laws and documents of republic of Iran Islamic about tourism show that they do not point to maritime, coastal tourism and eco-tourism. In this documents point to maintain of historical buildings and development of welfare affairs of pilgrims. To seem Iran’s government just supports religious tourism and a little historical tourism industry.  Conclusion The countries and geographical spaces involve with the political ideology. This political factor determine tourism type and a lots of percent stagnation or strenuous in a country. The political ideology of Iran’s state has limited tourism market to pilgrim tourism and some deal to historical tourism. Also, Iran state’s security-pivot and ideological view to tourism cussed Iran’s tourism industry has been more domestic aspect.
