Water, as a natural element, plays an extraordinary role in life, especially in desert areas. Water has a unique ability to stimulate the human mind and all human beings have an instinctive interest in water, which is why they have always sought to store water. This storage is more important in desert areas. The city of Yazd, one of the driest regions of Iran, has always faced water shortages.

Alexander's Prison

Alexander's Prison
This 15th-century domed school is known as Alexander’s Prison because of a reference to this apparently dastardly place in a Hafez poem.  Whether the deep well in the middle of its courtyard was in fact built by Alexander the Great and used as a dungeon seems doubtful, no matter what the guide says. The building is worth a look for the small display in the old city of Yazd.
