Hamedan

Key historical sites include the Ganjnameh inscriptions, the Tomb of Avicenna, the Tomb of Esther and Mordechai, and the Hegmataneh Hill, believed to be the site of the ancient city of Ecbatana.

The best time to visit Hamedan is during the spring (April-May) and autumn (September-October) when the weather is pleasant for exploring the city and surrounding areas. Summers can be hot and dry, while winters can be cold.

Hamedan offers a variety of Persian cuisine, including local specialties like Ash-e-mast (yogurt soup), and various kebabs. You can also find fresh produce, nuts, and sweets in the local bazaars.
