Under ground city of Nooshabad


Beneath the earth in Kashan, lays one of the most dazzling excavations for travelers, the underground city of Nushabad. The ancient multi-level underground city is made of caves rich in archeological finds that have been recently brought to light after centuries of silence. The first and second floors are built at a depth of 3 and 16 meters respectively. High on every visitor's hit-list, the uunderground city is dense, complex encompassing wide structures identical to narrow corridors and rooms in small dimensions. Flooded by visitors, the city has spaces all created by delicate and subtle digging together with corridors of a height of 180 cm and in some parts to 90 cm along with rooms of with different dimensions.  The end of each corridor leads to another. It is one of the most enchanting keys with which to enter into the dimension where history, cultural roots and time have left a profound and tangible mark. The floors are linked by vertical and horizontal channels. In addition to these channels, there are large rocks identical to that of the grinding mills. When taking shelter in the lower floors, the openings of the channels were closed by means of the rocks. It's a magical wonderland that both nature-lovers and history-buffs can appreciate. You can visit this wonderful underground land by joining Uppersia Kashan tour.
