The Zayandeh River runs through the heart of Isfahan, a world-heritage city that twice in its history has been the capital of Persia. The city’s wealth of cultural landscapes include one of the world's largest public squares, the Meidan Emam, also know as Naghsh-e Jahan (“Image of the World”). Along with this square, a string of other exceptionally beautiful public spaces, parks and gardens weave expertly into the urban fabric of this city.
Adding to and fitting naturally into this same urban fabric is the new Zayandeh Rud Park. While its design offers a contemporary interpretation of the Persian landscape, it respects and draws on traditional approaches to landscape design as well.
