Iran Apadana reliefs

Please log in or sign up for free to see the GPS coordinates & weather for this photo spot

A huge, monumental site of one of the capitals of the ancient Persian empire.

Photography Tips

Barriers protect all buildings and especially these reliefs. It isn't easy to get close.
The best light is in the late afternoon hours. The site closes at 19.00h but you might have a chance after that time because many visitors stay despite the requests to leave over the loudspeakers.
No tripods and even backpacks are not allowed on the site. You can store things in lockers at the entrance.
