Masuleh ,A village on Rooftops

Though Masuleh is one of Iran's most valued architectural treasures it is also one of its humblest.

Here it is not the sweeping vision of a master architect or the glory of a great king that tourists flock to appreciate, but the simplicity of a traditional village in a spectacular location untouched by the modern age.

The roofs of houses on lower tiers are used as courtyards for houses on the tiers above them. In some cases, public streets are laid out along interconnected roofs.
