About this Abarkūh map poster
Abarkūh lies in Yazd Province in central Iran, on a high desert plain between mountains. From above, the town shows two different fabrics. The old core has narrow, winding lanes and densely packed adobe houses, built for shade and shelter from the heat. Newer districts are laid out on straighter, wider streets around it.
The town is best known for the Cypress of Abarkūh, a tree estimated to be several thousand years old and often cited as one of the oldest living trees on earth. Abarkūh also has a historic ice house, a domed structure used to store ice through the summer, and the medieval tomb tower Gonbad-e Ali.
In black and white, Abarkūh's old lanes become a fine, maze-like texture set against the geometric order of the new town and the open desert around. An Abarkūh map poster suits people with family in Yazd Province, travellers who have seen the cypress, and anyone drawn to Iran's desert architecture.

Ancient cypress
The Cypress of Abarkūh stands in its own garden in the town, a small green space on the map around one of the world's oldest trees.
Desert plain
Open, arid land surrounds the town on all sides, giving the map a wide, pale margin that frames the streets.
