Located 15 kilometers west of Firouzkouh , 9 kilometers north of the Firouzkouh - Damavand road in Tehran Province , it is a mountain pass narrow of the Alborz range. The narrow gorge has been created by a year round stream of water originating from a series of Waterfall s upstream. The stream also provided a small hilly area within the mountains with lush grazing land. Until recently the area was populated by various wildlife and the Qajar king Fath Ali Shah maintained a hunting lodge there. To commemerate his hunts, Fath Ali Shah ordered the carving of a Relief in the mid way point of the pass. The remains of a Qajar guard tower also remain at the top of one of the mountain passes. Today the relief is a popular tourist attraction and the location is also highly popular among Trekking And Hiking fans. SEE ALSO EXTERNAL LINKS |
