Things to do

Find peace at Qadamgah Castle

See the 600-year-old castle 

Just outside the city, take the time to visit the 600-year-old Ejdeha Peykar Castle. Perched on top of a hill in the west of Lar, the stone structure dates back to the pre-Islamic era. The castle was partly destroyed during Reza Shah’s reign. Visit the upper and middle tower, as well as the remains of the stone walls.
