Isfahan, a travel gem with its vast number of wonders, is home to many historical sites, some of which are lesser-known to tourists, according to the provincial tourism chief.

Referring to policies framed by the Department of Cultural Heritage, Tourism and Handicrafts of Isfahan, Hamidreza Mohaqeqian emphasized that absorbing tourists in both quality and quantity is underway.

“We are seeking to introduce the lesser-known places of interest to the Nowruz travelers in cooperation with several relevant committees at the provincial level with a particular focus on the upcoming spring holidays,” the official noted.

Explaining the purpose of the decision, Mohaqeqian added that the visitors are expected to be more fascinated through this influential strategy by magnificent wonders which of course are visit-worthy.

Millions of visitors travel to Isfahan every year to immerse themselves in the city’s magnificent architecture and history. Isfahan was the capital of Iran for two important dynasties, the Seljuq and the Safavid. It was during the latter that many of the famous historical sites of this city were constructed.

There are numerous places to visit in Isfahan, and it would take a long time to visit all of them, which brings to light the importance of introducing the lesser-known sites to the tourists to exploit the city’s capacities in the best way possible.
