Description:
The Niasar Fire Temple (called Chahar Tagh) is a structure with a dome over a rock at the highest point of Niasar village, located 28 kilometers west of Kashan. The Fire Temple can be seen from quite a distance and has remained relatively intact since the time of Sassanid dynasty. It is accessible via a road going towards the stone mine goes past the fire temple. This stretch of road has become rugged and bumpy as a result of the transport of heavy duty mining equipment to the region.
