Zoroastrian Fire Temple?

I read something about the remains of a Zoroastrian Fire Temple on this mountain hence the name "Atash Kooh". Of course I have heard that about a number of other mountains including Azad Kooh. Did you see any remains?

Re: Zoroastrian Fire Temple?

That is an interesting point. I had never heard of it before. No, I didn't see anything. Next time I will ask the local guys in the village of Afjeh about it. They might know something.
