Tietoa
Nopeat faktat: Vuosittain tänne saapuu yli 500 000 kävijää ihailemaan monumentaalista portaikkoa, jossa on 111 askelmaa. Tämän seremoniakompleksin rakentamiseen käytettiin valtavia 125 000 kivilohkaretta, joista jotkut painavat jopa 40 tonnia.
Kohokohdat: Tiesitkö, että persialaiset kuninkaat ottivat täällä uuden vuoden aikana vastaan lahjoja kaikilta valtakunnan kansoilta ja reliefeissä on kuvattu 23 eri edustustoa? Auringonlaskun aikaan säteet osuvat täsmälleen Kaikkien kansojen porttiin, mikä luo teatraalisen valon ja varjon leikin vuosituhansia vanhoille kivireliefeille.
Sisäpiirin vinkit
- Wear a cap and comfortable footwear, the site has almost no shade and you will walk several kilometers over uneven stone blocks.
- The best photos of the Apadana Palace and the relief staircases are taken shortly after sunrise, when the light is softest and the site is still empty.
- Do not limit yourself to the main terrace, detour to the rock tomb of Artaxerxes II at the edge of the site, where there are significantly fewer tourists.
- Bring enough water and light snacks with you, the buffet at the site has a limited selection and higher prices.
