Description

This village is located on the slopes of Mount Sahand and near the Kandovan River. What makes this village special is its strange architecture: the houses are not built on the ground like other villages, but are carved into the rocks! This type of architecture makes you feel like you have entered a different world when you enter the village. A village with a 7000-year history. The air in Kandovan is very pleasant and cool because it is situated next to mountainous nature. By the way, if you are interested in history and architecture, Kandovan has many sights for you! The best time to travel to this village is in spring and summer because the weather is suitable and the surrounding nature is very lush.

Kandovan village in Tabriz is located near the city of Osku. What distinguishes and makes this village special is the presence of houses carved into the rocks and mountains, similar to those you can see in Cappadocia, Turkey, with the difference that Kandovan village remains inhabited, which is the distinguishing feature of this village compared to other villages in the world. Kandovan village was registered on the Iranian National Heritage List in 1997.
