Located in Mehriz, the Pahlavanpour Garden is one of Iran’s historical orchads. The orchard consists of a summerhouse, a winter quarter, a kitchen, a janitor’s unit and a public bathroom. The waters of the orchard are fed by the Hassan-Abad aqueduct. Next to the summerhouse, the kitchen, the bathroom, and the warehouse were situated, which have been recently unearthed throughout excavations which were carried out in this orchard.
The most valuable section of the orchard is the three-storey summerhouse, which covers an area of 1500 square meters. The interior section of the summerhouse includes a hall and a pond. The Kolah Farangi building within the summerhouse has been beautifully decorated and is considered as one of the most valuable sections of the summerhouse.
The other important building is the winter quarter. It is a one-storey building which includes the common room, and kitchen. The janitor’s unit which has been the place of residence and the workshop of the related workers is located in the northern corner of the orchard.
