Know before you go

It is possible to visit on all days except for specific religious days.
Abyaneh Village is known as the Ruby of Karkas Mountain because of its reddish architecture. It is located between Karkas Mountain and Natanz, on the way from Isfahan to Kashan.
This village, which is very well known these days by tourists, is where you will see the locals wearing authentic clothes and living in unique architecture. You will also walk through the village and visit the best viewpoint in this location.
Before heading to Abyaneh, you have the chance to visit one of the coolest cities close to the desert, which we know as the City Garden and call Natanz.
Private photography is available on request.

On this tour, you can choose between Kashan or Isfahan.
