Hamadan is believed to be among the oldest Iranian cities and one of the oldest in the world. It is possible that it was occupied by the Assyrians in 1100 BCE; the Ancient Greek historian, Herodotus, states that it was the capital of the Medes, around 700 BCE.
The special nature of this old city and its historic sites attract tourists during the summer to this city, located approximately 360 kilometres (220 miles) southwest of Tehran[/vc_column_text][vc_gallery type=”image_grid” images=”3585,4488,3593,3630,3569,3801,3798″ img_size=”200×200″][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section]
