This remarkable site encompasses an Iron-Age fortress, three prehistorical temples, and numerous stones adorned with peculiar mouthless faces.
During its prime, Shahr-e Yeri witnessed ceremonial burials with elaborate rituals rooted in religious beliefs.
In recent years, extensive restoration efforts have been carried out to preserve the Iron-Age fortress, prehistorical temples, and the remarkable collection of mouthless stone carvings.
To safeguard the sprawling 400-hectare site from harsh natural elements, substantial protective structures have been erected, as confirmed by local authorities.
Shahr-e Yeri was officially recognized as a national heritage site in 1931.
