of Iran is a unique architectural genre characterized by the use of mud-bricks as well as dome-like roofs for the ceilings. Traditional tiles and tile-works, furthermore, are used for the interior and exterior decorations of the buildings. Although there are many historic cities in Iran, seven of them are selected in this series. They include: Kermaan City, Kaashaan, Naaein (Naa-een), Shiraaz, Persepolis, Isfahaan City, and Yazd City.

completely wiped out in a modernization process.
Kaashaan is a historic city in Iran which is located about 150 miles southeast of Tehran. Findings from the Siyalk

The revised edition of the Volume II of this series (copyright 2021), invites viewers to A Visual Journey To Kaashaan

and the Jam'a mosque of Kaashaan, and many well-built traditional houses.
