Kandovan: A Rocky Village in Iran

Kandovan is one of the villages of East Azarbaijan province in Osku city with more than 7000 years of historical background. In 1997, it was registered as one of Iran’s national heritages. The village of Kandovan is famous because of the conical shape of the houses that are made of rocks and located in a rocky mountain. No materials such as gypsum, lime or clay, have been used in the unique architecture of these houses and all of them are carved into the volcanic rocks of Sahand Mountain. The rocks are the result of thousands of years of eruption.

What distinguishes Kandovan from similar spots is that the ordinary life still goes on between these volcanic cliffs. Tourists will have the chance to buy the locals’ handicrafts, herbs, and spices while visiting the homes of its today’s residents. They can have a memorable experience staying either at a local hotel or a local house. It is interesting to know that these rocky houses have different sections such as living room or kitchen. Some even have water and electricity, just like an ordinary home.
