Iran UNESCO - Historic City of Yazd

Iran UNESCO
Historic City of Yazd
City close to the Spice and Silk Roads and historic garden of Dolat-abad
Inscribed in 2017
The City of Yazd is located in the middle of the Iranian plateau, 270 km southeast of Isfahan, close to the Spice and Silk Roads.
It bears living testimony to the use of limited resources for survival in the desert.
Water is supplied to the city through a qanat system developed to draw underground water.
The earthen architecture of Yazd has escaped the modernization that destroyed many traditional earthen towns, retaining its traditional districts, the qanat system, traditional houses, bazars, hammams, mosques, synagogues, Zoroastrian temples and the historic garden of Dolat-abad.
Ville historique de Yazd:
La ville historique de Yazd est située au milieu du plateau iranien, à 270 km au sud-est d’Ispahan, à proximité des routes des épices et de la soie. C’est un témoignage vivant de l’utilisation de ressources limitées pour assurer la survie dans le désert. L’eau est amenée en ville par un système de qanat – ouvrage destiné à capter l’eau souterraine. Construite en terre, la ville de Yazd a échappé à la modernisation qui a détruit de nombreuses villes de ce type. Elle a gardé ses quartiers traditionnels, le système de qanat, les maisons anciennes, les bazars, les hammams, les mosquées, les synagogues, les temples zoroastriens et le jardin historique de Dolat-abad.
Ciudad histórica de Yazd:
La ciudad histórica de Yazd se sitúa en el medio de la meseta central iraní, a 270 km al sureste de Isfahán y cerca de las rutas de las especias y de la seda. Es un testimonio vivo del uso de recursos limitados para garantizar la vida en el desierto. El agua llegaba a la ciudad por un sistema de qanats, destinados a capta ragua de las napas freáticas. Los edificios de la ciudad son de tierra. La ciudad escapó a las tendencias a la modernización que destruyeron numerosas ciudades tradicionales de tierra. La ciudad perdura con sus barrios tradicionales, el sistema de qanats, las viviendas tradicionales, los bazares, los hamames, las mezquitas, las sinagogas, los templos zoroastrianos y el jardín histórico de Dolat Abad.
