The Bazaar of Kashan is a labyrinth of centuries-old passageways, domed intersections, and caravanserais. Unlike modern malls, it retains its traditional character: merchants sit cross-legged among piles of Persian rugs, hammered copper pots gleam in dim light, and the scent of saffron and dried limes fills the air. The bazaar's architecture, brick arches, wind catchers, and skylights, creates a naturally cool environment. It's a living museum of commerce where bargaining is expected and every turn reveals a new craft.
