Kashan Walking Tour
Kashan, Iran
Why Walk Kashan
Kashan is one of Iran's most rewarding cities, compact enough to explore on foot yet containing some of the country's finest traditional architecture. The merchant houses of the Qajar era — with their wind towers, courtyards, mirror work, and painted ceilings — rival palaces in their grandeur. The Fin Garden, one of the oldest surviving Persian gardens, dates to the 16th century.
