TEHRAN – A landscape restoration will be implemented on the premises of a UNESCO-registered Sassanid palace in Sarvestan, Fars province.

The archeological area is currently subject of fence operations and tourism infrastructure modification as well, ISNA reported on Monday. 

The monument along with several counterparts are altogether inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage list under the name “Sassanid Archaeological Landscape of Fars Region”.

The ensemble embodies political, historical, cultural and artistic developments of the mighty Sasanian Empire (224–651), which was a leading world power alongside its neighboring arch-rival the Roman-Byzantine Empire.
