Yazd is one of the most important city as a center of Persian architecture. The dry, scorching desert climate in front of the city has one of the largest qanat networks in the world, and Yazd's qanat builders are considered the most skilled in Iran.

 One of the unique wonders of this city is the presence of many buildings c

h to face the torrid summers, they are equipped with magnificent wind towers and vast underground environments.

The old city of Yazd is one of the largest urban centers built almost entirely with adobe, a mixture of clay, sand and straw.

in order to discover the wonders of this beautiful city, the University of Rome Sapienza in collaboration with the University of Yazd organized a seminar with the presence of university professors.
