Persian Gardens
Talk about paradise and we’ll refer to the Persian Gardens. During the 1970s, the Persian garden was excavated by David Stronach, who assessed that there was a private entry point shielded by Pasargadae’s palaces. Inside, one would find orchards, channels, pavilions, terraces, pools, and a walkway. In the center of the garden, there was a pool that led off into four separate directions leading the water to spill into various channels.
Historical documentation pertaining to the garden stated that a wide range of exotic animals roamed the grounds. Exotic plants also grew in the gardens, including tamarisk, oleander, roses and violets. Many of these plants were used to make perfumes and medicines.
