With its rich history in Iran’s culture, science, and civilization, the city has been the birthplace of intellectuals such as Ayatollah Hassanzadeh Amoli and Fazel Sharafodin. Due to its advantageous geographic position, it has always served as a connection between the Alborz Mountains and the Mazandaran plains, and as a gateway to the Caspian Sea.

The Haraz River, which flows through the central part of the city, has not only created breathtaking natural scenery but has also turned Amol into one of the most important tourist and historical attractions.

Amol boasts many tourist sites, including:

Hashtal Tower
The Museum of Amol’s History
Davazdah Cheshmeh Bridge
Polour Village
Lar Plain
