Los mejores sitios qué ver en Tabas

Tabas se sitúa en el noreste de la provincia Yazd. Lo llaman “Tabas-e Golshan” por su vegetación permanente, así como por la existencia de un jardín llamado “Golshan”. Este jardín con sus famosos pelícanos, que es uno de los jardines más bellos de Irán, y el santuario de Hossein Ibn-e Musa son símbolos de la ciudad de Tabas. Esta ciudad tiene un clima cálido y árido pero la existencia de la montaña Shotori ha formado muchas reservas de agua, ríos permanentes y valles verdes en esta zona. Ya que hay muy pocas residencias humanas en esta vasta zona árida, tiene buenas condiciones para preservar los especies en peligro de extinción como los últimos restos de guepardo asiático en el refugio de animales Naybandan.

After millenniums and with all the secrets and legends behind the nature being revealed, the night sky, constellations and shiny stars are still as mysterious and attractive as it has been for the first men. Studying ancient monuments related to ancient civilizations like Giza pyramids of Egypt, temples of Maya civilization and the great Persepolis of Achaemenids prove that those people paid attention to astronomy, too. Ferdowsi the great Iranian poet of Shahnameh (the masterpiece of Persian literature), has mentioned stories about the Persian kings who were interested in astronomy and phenomena like meteorites.
