On the forested slopes of Behshahr, Abbasabad is a Safavid ensemble of garden, lake, dam, tower and water channels. When the water rises, a chahar-taq pavilion appears like an island; the union of mist, woodland and garden geometry makes it a distinctive component of UNESCO’s Persian Garden property.
