Introduction
The Persian language castle in Iran was originally built during the Zand Dynasty and named Arg-e Karim Khan. It served as the residence and military command center of Karim Khan at the time. Later, during the Qajar Dynasty, it was transformed into a governor's office and eventually became a prison after the downfall of the dynasty. The castle has four corner towers, one of which has tilted and sunk. The interior of the castle is relatively simple, with a central orange tree orchard, but there are Iranian craftsmen on site creating and selling crafts, and travelers can even join in and create their own unique piece.
