Old City

Reviewed By Faezeh94 - Isfahan, Iran

Separation of the modern urban and traditional texture of Yazd city is the main distinctive feature of this city with other cities. Alley of calm and silent with kind people in the traditional texture of Yazd is one of the most prominent beauties of this city.

Jameh Mosque of Yazd

Reviewed By Wander53796090654 - Iran, null

The Jame Mosque or the Congregational Mosque is one of the oldest monuments of the Islamic era in Yazd. An imposing entrance (the tallest of all mosques in Iran) topped by two minarets that dominate the old city. Much of the history of The Mosque dates back to Mongolian times in the 14th century. The monument has been restored several times. The last works were carried out between 1954 and 1986. The reputation of the mosque is due to its Persian blue tiles, its mosaics with various floral and geometric patterns, or its fine ornamentation in brick and terracotta. The water is channeled through a qanat, accessed by a staircase to perform ablution before prayer. jame-mosque-yazd

Morteza Ali Canyon

Reviewed By h0urit - Iran, null

you must walk in the river, so bring suitable shoes and extra dress with yourself. مسیر پیاده روی رودخانه طولانی هست و باید کفش مناسب برای راه رفتن داخل آب و لباس اضافی به همراه داشته باشید.

Kharanagh

Reviewed By anthonyaF276RF

Kharanaq is a minor tourist attraction in Yazd province. The whole village is made of mud and it’s now almost deserted and neglected after being inhabited for more than a 3,000 years!!! The abandoned village is a network of streets, tunnels, passageways, a mosque, a “shaking” minaret (to withstand earthquakes) and a caravanserai that housed merchants and pilgrims centuries ago. It is a unique and astonishing village crumbling after 3,000 years. Definitely a must visit before it disappears completely.

Bricked ice storage of AbarKuh

This Yakhchal has conical shape, which is made of clay. and its height is 20 meters. The downward diameter is almost 10 meters, there is also a hole drilled in its floor to the depth of 2 to 3 m. About 100 years ago, when climate change was not drastic and the heavy snowfall was common, people gathered and stored the snow in these Yakhchals to use it in summer and spring.

I had never heard of ice houses in Iran, so we were greatly surprised to see one in Abarqu. Of course, having seen one, we saw many more along our travels. They are beautiful, conical structures resembling bottle kilns used to fire ceramics, and you can enter this one. A true marvel.
