The Terraced Village in the Clouds

Local authorities and heritage organizations emphasize the need to balance tourism with cultural integrity, ensuring that the traditions and authenticity of Masouleh are not overshadowed by modern demands. Masouleh is more than a village — it is a symbol of coexistence between humans and nature, and between tradition and modernity.

Its terraces reflect not only architectural genius but also the philosophy of collective living, where every rooftop, courtyard, and pathway is shared. To wander through Masouleh is to step into a living poem — one written in clay and stone, sung in mist and mountain air, and preserved in the spirit of its people.
