Although not a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Taq-e Bustan in the north of Kermanshah is a nicely preserved historical site from the Sassanid period (4th century). It consists of several bas reliefs representing kings Ardashir II and Shapur II. The site was located along the historic Silk Road to make impression on travellers in those days. The lake and the small river that feeds the lake give it also a romantic touch.
MoreGreat Historical Place . The most popular tourist attraction in Kermanshah .
This example of Persian Sassanid art is located 5 km from the city center of Kermanshah. It is located in the heart of the Zagros mountains, where it has endured almost 1,700 years of wind and rain. Originally, several sources were visible next to and below the reliefs and arches, some of which are now covered. Sources next to the reliefs still feed a large basin in front of the rock. The site has been turned into an archaeological park and a series of late Sassanian and Islamic column capitals have been brought together (some found at Taq Bostan, others at Bisutun and Kermanshah).The carvings, some of the finest and best-preserved examples of Persian sculpture under the Sassanids, include representations of the investitures of Ardashir II (379–383and Shapur III (383–388). Like other Sassanid symbols, Taq-e Bostan, and its relief patterns accentuate power, religious tendencies, glory, honor, the vastness of the court, game and fighting spirit, festivity, joy, and rejoicing.Sassanid kings chose a beautiful setting for their rock reliefs along an historic Silk Road caravan route waypoint and campground. The reliefs are adjacent to sacred springs that empty into a large reflecting pool at the base of a mountain cliff.Taq-e Bostan and its rock relief are one of the 30 surviving Sassanid relics of the Zagros mountains. According to Arthur Pope, the founder of the Iranian Art and Archeology Institute in the United States of America, "art was characteristic of the Iranian people and the gift which they endowed the world with."

MoreVery nice place to visit. Those places have always been an attraction to people. The carvings are great. Unfortunately, you are not allowed to get directly in front of them. By a distance of about 10-15 m you can hardly get any detail. Especially the carvings on the side walls of the big cave cant be seen.Dont miss that place especially during Springtime, it looks a bit like an alpine panorama.
