You will not believe its existence until you see this surprise up close! You might think of an ancient valley in East Asia or a mysterious lake in the heart of Africa. You have probably seen the same thing on TV pictures or nature documentaries showing pristine areas of the earth. But make no mistake. This strait is part of the pristine nature of our province of Ilam.
The flowing waters inside Kafrin strait originate from the high and soaring mountains of Kabirkuh, and after crossing this strait, they flow into Samira river. The length of the strait is two kilometers, and one kilometer of its entrance is the Zamzam water pond. Jaber shrine in this area is also one of the other tourist attractions in this area. You can go to this river by boat, paddle and enjoy its relaxing and mysterious silence.
It is not surprising that ancient myths and legends are not limited to literature, and retain their influence in various aspects of a nation’s life. In the Kooshak strait area of the Zarneh section of the city of Ivan, there is a building that, according to local legends, was built by Farhad in the middle of the day for a sweet night’s rest.
The elders know it as Shirin arch, but it is generally called Taq Shirin and Farhad. This building is a stone arch located at the foot of the mountain, and belongs to the Sassanid period. In its construction, large carved stones have been used, which have been placed in a row without mortar. But the most unique feature in its architecture is the vaulted roof, which is made flat instead of crescent-shaped. No building can carry an ancient myth without having a special feature.
One of the most important historical monuments and tourist attractions of Ilam can be considered the Wali castle. This fort was built by the order of “Gholamreza Khan Wali” in a neighborood called “Hossein Abad Fili” which is called “Deh Bala”.
