Arash Tour - 17 Days

Arash tour includes the north and northwest of Iran. In this trip, we will get acquainted with the delicious traditional food, nomadic life and unique handicrafts of these areas. We will visit the pristine areas and unique architecture of this part of Iran

One of the important attractions of Arash Tour can be mentioned:

The lithograph of the royal hunting ground of Taq-e Bostan is considered to be the first stone painting in the world in accordance with the rules and principles of painting. In this sculpture, Khosrow rides on Shabdiz as if the work has been painted. Also in the Great Arch are works by female musicians playing harps and wind instruments. In another part of the large arch, the boar hunting scene can be seen, which is considered one of the masterpieces of lithography in terms of movement and display, which in art style is close to the style of painting on the wall.

Takht-e Soleiman is located in a very green valley with many beautiful sights and unique historical areas. Takht-e Soleiman is considered by many to be the birthplace of Zoroaster, and the construction of the Azargashnesb fire temple in this area as the most important temple revered by Zoroastrian Iranians during the Sassanid era can be a seal of approval for this belief. In the historical castle of Takht-e Soleiman, there is the Azar Gashnesb Fire Temple, which is one of the most important fire temples of the Sassanid period. Khosrow Anoshirvan and Khosrow Parviz were the Sassanid kings who paid special attention to this fire temple and tried to develop it.

Lake Bostan Arch

The historical monuments of Takht-e Soleiman are built around a natural lake with a water depth of more than 120 meters, and the water of this lake is supplied from the ground. The buildings built around the lake have created a unique landscape that is visited by many tourists from different parts of the world every year.
