AlirezaOctober 7, 2014Artistically cut stones used to be joined together using lead clips to make them resistant to earthquakes. Metal clips must be replaced or more cracks in the stones would appear over time.
Upvoted Mar 26- AlirezaOctober 7, 2014It is speculated that in this wonderful carving the lion and the cow are symbols of spring and winter. The lion conquers over the cow as the first day of spring (Nowruz) emerges.

Hooman ShalchiApril 30, 2017Words can not describe it! Fascinating-Amazing-Spectacular. DO NOT miss it if you are around.
- AlirezaOctober 6, 2014Trained guides are available, but they only accompany a group of visitors if they are paid 35 thousand Tomans. The more the number of people in the group, the less every individual's share.
- Aslan SpringFebruary 16, 2016A nation's history lies here. Amazing architecture with enigmatic masonry technology. Every body have to visit this place once in their life
- Matthew BradeyJanuary 3, 2019The preserved stone carvings are great. Also take the time to climb up to both tombs. Use a guide and hire the VR headsets.

Mohi MirdamadiOctober 26, 2015دیدن این مکان اعجاب انگیز رو با استفاده از راهنماهایی که اونجا مستقر هستند و با صرف هزینهای حدود ۴۰ هزار تومان کامل کنید. به نظر من کاملا ارزشش رو داره.
Vahid VahabiJune 5, 2015باید برای گشتن و دیدن اینجا چند ساعت وقت گذاشت. پیشنهادم اینه که تنها باشین و توی یک روز خلوت. با آرامش و تمرکز فکر کنین و فکر کنین و فکر کنین...

Persepolis literally meaning "the Persian city", was the ceremonial capital of the Achaemenid Empire (ca. 550–330 BC). The earliest remains of Persepolis date back to 515 BC. It exemplifies the Achaemenid style of architecture. UNESCO declared the ruins of Persepolis a World Heritage Site in 1979.
