I can see that and actually as I made my way up to go inside, I was half expecting there to be large wide open spaces. (It wasn’t the case though, for the most part very tightly packed homes.)

Hi Priyank,

It was inhabited by various groups and kingdoms and just checked, ironically not the Persians (which is strange considering it’s geographical location!)

I had to turn off the comments in Gallery2 as I was getting tons of spam and the filter wasn’t stopping much at all. I really need to upgrade to Gallery 3 but am continually dragging my feet on it since I’m worried about the possible permalink hiccups.

Honestly your post about it really has got me thinking!

Very intriguing since the structure looks like older Persian architecture. I also checked out your pictures, but gallery2 doesnt let you comment! I esp liked the statue and the mosque.
