Using Bitcoin as a cash withdrawal method in Iran

Using Bitcoin as a cash withdrawal method in Iran - Bitcoins and U.s Dollar Bills

As Iran's banking system is disconnected from the rest of the world due to sanctions there are limited ways to get Iranian Rial (IRR).
The only way I managed to find is to bring foreign currency (EUR/USD) into the country and exchange it.

For obvious reasons I prefer not carrying around large amounts of cash and I was wondering if there are places in bigger cities to exchange Bitcoins for cash(IRR), and if this is possible, what are the exchange rates?
