WHERE IS MIZDAKHKAN LOCATED?

LEGENDS

Apparently, from ancient times, the Eastern Hill had the significance of a holy place for more than a thousand years: a cemetery was located on the hill, both in pre-Islamic times and with the advent of Islam.

It is quite possible that the community of followers of the Sufi Sheikh Sulayman al-Haddadi al-Musawi played a significant role in this process of forming the legendary history of Mizdahkan.
