The world’s rose water capital is in a city whose civilization reaches 7 thousand years. Kashan is the first word that comes to our minds when we smell the fragrance of the rose or when we hear the poems of Sohrab and other great people of this region.
Everything in Kashan is a sign of civilization, culture and feeling, from Ardibehesht and the fragrance of Mohammed flowers, and the beautiful rituals of this city, such as the spectacular Gulabgiri ceremony, to the greenness of Shah’s garden and 7 thousand-year-old silk, alleys and historical buildings, etc.
Wherever you go in Kashan, history is passing by if you are in the center of its historical houses. You will find yourself among architecture that is not like it anywhere, from the house of the Tabatabaites to the Ameri, Boroujerdi, Abbasid, etc.
From Agha Bozor Mosque, you will feel the purity, intimacy and simplicity in the spirituality of its architecture and atmosphere

If you pass by the market, Timcheh Amin al-Douleh will drown you in its beauty for hours.
Wherever you go, you will take sweet memories with you.
But a little further from Kashan, there is Ardibeheshti, like heaven, the flower gardens of mohammad flowers that grow at the bottom of the mountain have such a fragrance that it will blow your mind in this season. Barzak, Qomsar, Niaser, Joshghan are among the cities that have the most production and export of rose water. In this season, if you want to see how pure pears are produced from these heavenly flowers in traditional pots, or how some families are engaged in picking flowers together since dawn, according to their ancient tradition, you should visit these cities of Kashan.
Usually, the time of harvesting flowers in these cities is different, and wherever it is hotter, the flowers will be obtained earlier. But the season of blooming flowers starts from May 15 and lasts until June 15. If you plan to participate in the flower and rose festival, this is the time you should travel to different cities of Kashan.
