Stone villages stacked on steep slopes, on the UNESCO list since 2021.

About this place

In Hawraman the houses are built one above the other so that a neighbour’s roof is your street, a way of building that UNESCO listed as a cultural landscape in 2021. The valleys are famous for walnut and pomegranate terraces, thin flatbread, and the winter Pir Shalyar festival. Roads are steep and narrow: drive slowly and in daylight.

Visiting times

Villages are open at any hour, free. Go in daylight; some upper roads close after heavy snow.

Times can change on holidays and in bad weather. Ask us in the direct chat if you need the current hours.
