Pasargad, Iran
Village
N/A
The first capital of the Achaemenid Empire, Pasargadae lies in ruins 40'40 kilometers from Persepolis, in present-day Fars province of Iran. Pasargadae was first archaeologically explored by the German archaeologist Ernst Herzfeld in 1905, and in one excavation season in 1928, together with his assistant Friedrich Krefter. Since 1946, the original documents, notebooks, photographs, fragments of wall paintings and pottery from the early excavations are preserved in the Freer Gallery of Art, Smithsonian Institution, in Washington, DC. After Herzfeld, Sir Aurel Stein completed a site plan for Pasargadae in 1934. In 1935, Erich F. Schmidt produced a series of aerial photographs of the entire complex. From 1949 to 1955, an Iranian team led by Ali Sami worked there. A British Institute of Persian Studies team led by David Stronach resumed excavation from 1961 to 1963. It was during the 1960s that a pot-hoard known as the Pasargadae Treasure was excavated near the foundations of 'Pavilion B' at the site. Dating to the 5th-4th centuries BC, the treasure consists of ornate Achaemenid jewellery made from gold and precious gems and is now housed in the National Museum of Iran and the British Museum. It has been suggested that the treasure was buried as a subsequent action once Alexander the Great approached with his army, then remained buried, hinting at violence. After a gap, work was resumed by the Iranian Cultural Heritage Organization and the Maison de l'Orient et de la Méditerranée of the University of Lyon in 2000. The complex is one of the key cultural heritage sites for tourism in Iran.

The pillar of great and glorious times
the Cyrus used to meet people in this palace. it's good to see.
Amazing civilization
Known for many years as the location of the only and oldest surviving intact column at Pasargadae and throughout Iran, having more than 2550 years old, Palace S (Herzfeld’s “Palast mit der Saule”) was undeniably built to serve as the principal public palace for Cyrus and his court in a very distinctive island -like location surrounded by the permanent stream supplied from a not too far river, Pulvar.
really interesting
این مکان در محوطه جهانی پاسارگاد قرار داره و به نظر من زیباترین اثر در این مجموعه هست
کاخ بار عام یکی از کاخ ها در منطقه پاسارگاد است که دیدارهای عمومی پادشاه با مردم مقامات ملل و میهمانان شاه در آن برگزار می شده است. مجموعه پاسارگاد یکی از میراث های جهانی ثبت شده در یونسکو است. این کاخ به بیان دیگر کاخ پذیرایی کورش بزرگ بوده است که البته چیز زیادی از آن باقی نمانده. سنگ نوشته ای در این کاخ وجود دارد که بر روی آن نوشته شده: من کورش شاه هخامنشی ام جالب است بدانید که کاخ بارعام کورش را اولین مقر سازمان ملل در 25 قرن پیش می دانند.
