Pahlevanpur Garden
باغ پهلوانپور
A Qajar-era Persian garden in the town of Mehriz, where water from the qanat flows through the grounds. It is part of the UNESCO-listed Persian Gardens.
The garden lies in Mehriz, about 40 km south of Yazd, and dates from the 19th-century Qajar dynasty. It was inscribed in 2011 as part of the Persian Gardens World Heritage Site. Water from the underground channel emerges within the garden and flows along a central waterway lined with tall cypress and fruit trees, leading to a main pavilion with a pool hall. It is quieter and more atmospheric than Dolat Abad Garden. It pairs well with Saryazd Castle and Fahraj Jameh Mosque on a southern day trip.
