It is at an altitude of about 1800 meters above sea level, and is a city with a cold but dry climate being south of the rugged Alborz range. The city was the location of a former capital of the Persian Empire.[1] It is a provincial capital today that has been an important cultural center throughout history. Archeological findings in the Qazvin plain reveal urban agricultural settlements for at least nine millennia. Qazvin geographically connects Tehran, Isfahan, and the Persian Gulf to the Caspian seacoast and Asia Minor, hence its strategic location throughout the ages. The city today known as Qazvin is thought to have been founded by Shapur I, King of Persia in 250 CE, under the name Shad Shahpur, when he built a fortification there to control regional tensions.](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/nXTHNwHFLaw/0.jpg) 4.38 min. | 4.05 user rating |
