Pasargadae is the location of the tomb of Cyrus the Great, founder of the Achaemenid Empire. Through the ages it was Islamised and the tomb was ascribed to the Mother of Solomon. It was only at the beginning of the twentieth century that archaeological evidence demonstrated the relationship between the site and Cyrus and it was appropriated into conflicting political discourses on nationalism and Islamism while concurrently acknowledged as a national and then a World Heritages site. However, Pasargadae is neither an isolated World Heritage site, nor purely a symbol of abstract state politics. Pasargadae and its immediate vicinity constitute a living landscape occupied by villagers, nomads and tourists. This edited volume presents for the first time a broad, multi-disciplinary examination of Pasargadae by experts from both outside and within Iran. It specifically focuses on those disciplines that are absent from existing studies, such as ethnography, tourism and museum studies providing valuable insights into this fascinating place. In its totality, the book argues that to understand World Heritage sites and their problems fully, a holistic approach should be adopted, which considers the manifold of perspectives and issues. It also puts forward a novel approach to the question of heritage, representation and construction of collective identity from the framework of place.

Yazd City, the capital of Yazd province, is a historic city in Iran, which is located about 500 miles southeast of Tehran. In a Farsi source, the date of the foundation of this city is linked to the time of Alexander (c. 320 B.C.) as he ordered the construction of a prison in this location to keep Persian princes. Many features of the indigenous (or the clay) architecture are present in this province in their best forms and shapes (--sometimes it is referred to as the Yazd School of architecture ), such as clay castles, the Jam'a mosque, traditional houses, wind-catching towers (baadgeirs), baazaars, dome and arch by mud-bricks, koochehes ( narrow alleyways), ground, water reservoirs, and qanat irrigation system. Because of a modernization process in Iran from about 1950s, however, the clay architecture in Iran, as well as in Yazd, has been abandoned and historic buildings and structures have been demolished to be replaced by apartment complexes and by modern buildings made up of metal skeleton and concrete blocks. The present series seeks to collect images of the survived, architectural features in the historic cities of Iran before they are completely wiped out in a modernization process. Volume VII of this series, therefore, invites viewers to A Visual Journey To Yazd City for a review of the samples of the clay (or the indigenous) architecture in this historic city, which is in the process of being registered by UNESCO as a world's heritage site. Yazd City, the capital of the Yazd Province, is a historic city of Iran, which is in the process by being registered by the UNSCO as world's heritage city due to many unique, architectural features. The historic cities of Iran, founded centuries ago, host many features of the indigenous architecture of Iran. The indigenous ( or the clay) architecture of Iran is a unique architectural genre characterized by the use of mud-bricks as well as dome-like roofs for the ceilings. Traditional tiles and tile-works, furthermore, are used for the interior and exterior decorations of the buildings. Although there are many historic cities in Iran, seven of them are selected in this series. They include: Kermaan City, Kaashaan, Naaein (Naa-een), Shiraaz, Persepolis, Isfahaan City, and Yazd City. VolumeVI of this series covers main indigenous, architectural features in the historic city of Isfahaan. Many features of the indigenous (or clay) architecture are present in Yazd City, such as Yazd's Jam'a Mosque, (c. A.D. 15th century), baazaars, domes, vaulted ceilings, and arches by mud-bricks, and clay, koochehes (narrow alleyways), and the qanat irrigation system, and many wind-catching towers ( baadgeirs ) . Because of a modernization process in Iran from about 1950s, however, the clay architecture in Iran, as well as in Yazd City, has been abandoned and historic buildings and structures have been demolished to be replaced by apartment complexes and by modern buildings made up of metal skeleton and concrete blocks. The present series seeks to collect images of the survived, architectural features in the historic cities of Iran before they are completely wiped out in a modernization process. The revised edition of the Volume VII of this series (copyright 2021), invites viewers to A Visual Journey To Yazd City for a review of the samples of the clay ( or the indigenous) architecture in this historic city, which hosts rich samples of the clay architecture which is known as The Yazd School of the indigenous architecture of Iran.
