Alamut
Alamut Geographic Region ((ペルシア語:الموت); Alamūt) is a region in Iran including western and eastern parts in the western edge of the Alborz (Elburz) range, between the dry and barren plain of Qazvin in the south and the densely forested slopes of the Mazandaran province in the north. Starting from Qazvin toward Alamut, passing through the first range of hills, curvatures, forms, scars, wrinkles are significant themes in nature's composition of this area. Two big citadels of Ismailis, Lambsar and Alamut castles, are in this area. Hassan-i Sabbah and his Hashshashin controlled the area for many years.〔(Alamut )〕
==History==
In 1090 AD, Hassan Sabbah, the leader of Ismailites in Iran, chose the Alamut region, as his headquarters to campaign, preach and convert new followers. That proved to be a turning point for destiny of Alamut Valley. The result of over two centuries of Ismailite stronghold, the region witnessed innumerous castles throughout, of which at least 20 “castles“ dating back to this era have been identified. The most magnificent castle in the Alamut Valley is the Alamut Castle, which is built on top of a high rock reaching 2163 m above sea level near the Gazor Khan Village. The rock is 200 m high and covers an area of ; with its steep slope and deep and dangerous ravine, the rock is practically inaccessible and forms a part of the fort’s structure. Currently, only ruins of the fort and some towers are apparent, and it is only through archaeological excavation the the main portions can be discovered.〔(Alamut Castle (Eagle’s Nest): Hassan Sabbah Stronghold )〕
