Dayr-e Gachin: Mother of Iranian Caravansarais
Also called the “Mother of Iranian Caravansarais,” Dayr-e Gachin is a historic caravanserai at the heart of Kavir National Park in Qom, Iran. The construction was originally built during the Sasanian era (224-651 AD); nevertheless, the current structure largely dates from the Safavid era (1501-1736). Covering 12000 square meters of area, the caravanserai comprises four circular towers, 44 chambers, 4 stables, a mosque, a private shabestan (an underground space), a barn, a gristmill, and a bathhouse.
