Iran - Kharanaq, Chak Chak & Meybod

We drove through the desert through a mostly beautiful lunar landscape to Yazd via Kharanaq, Chak Chak and Meybod. Kharanaq is an old deserted village of mud houses. Some buildings have been restored in a peculiar way, but no one lives there. Chak Chak is a Zoroastrian pilgrimage site. This religion existed before Islam and still has supporters in Iran. Meybod has a big mud castle, but because we wanted to be in Yazd before dark we only saw it from the outside.

Yazd (Iran) Vacation Travel Video Guide

Travel video about destination Yazd in Iran.
The ancient desert city of Yazd is located within the centre of the State Of Iran and is one of the country’s oldest cities, set like a string of pearls along the Kavir coast. It is also a centre for the followers of the Zarathustra faith, the pious predecessors of Islam who fled to the city to escape Arab persecution. A small square is situated in the middle of the Old Town district of Fahadan, flanked by historic buildings such as a prison where, according to legend, Alexander The Great held captive various Achaemenid dignitaries and which was later used as a school. The narrow streets of the historic Old Town mainly consist of mud-built buildings with partially covered corridors, domes and numerous wind towers. The maze of narrow streets in which several single-storey buildings are still inhabited has been designated as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site. The city’s largest water storage tank is dominated by six wind towers that capture the slightest breeze that in turn cool down the stored water. Nearby, Agh-E-Dolat A-Bad, the magnificent palace residence of Mohamma Taqui Khan Bafqi who was Governor of Yazd from 1747 A.D. Yazd is not only an ancient culture, it is also an Oriental dream!
