The Hyrcanian Forests World Heritage property is situated in Iran, within the Caspian Hyrcanian mixed forests ecoregion.\u00a0 It stretches 850 km along the southern coast of the Caspian Sea and covers around 7 % of the remaining Hyrcanian forests in Iran.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221;][vc_column css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1650375367316{margin-top: 10px !important;margin-bottom: 10px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;nd_options_text_align_center_responsive&#8221;]The property is a serial site with 15 component parts shared across three Provinces (Gilan, Mazandaran and Golestan) and represents examples of the various stages and features of Hyrcanian forest ecosystems. Most of the ecological characteristics which characterize the Caspian Hyrcanian mixed forests are represented in the property. A considerable part of the property is in inaccessible steep terrain. The property contains exceptional and ancient broad-leaved forests which were formerly much more extensive however, retreated during periods of glaciation and later expanded under milder climatic conditions. Due to this isolation, the property hosts many relict, endangered, and regionally and locally endemic species of flora, contributing to the high ecological value of the property and the Hyrcanian region in general.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_placement=&#8221;middle&#8221; disable_element=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1650376898982{margin-top: 30px !important;margin-bottom: 10px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1650375363175{margin-top: 10px !important;margin-bottom: 10px !important;padding-top: 0px !important;}&#8221;] <h2 style=\"color:; padding:px; text-align:; font-size:30px; line-height:60px; letter-spacing: 0px; font-weight:bold;\" class=\"  nd_options_text_align_center_responsive_important nd_options_first_font \">Attractions<\/h2> [\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row disable_element=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1650376907815{margin-top: 20px !important;margin-right: 0px !important;margin-bottom: 0px !important;margin-left: 0px !important;border-top-width: 1px !important;border-right-width: 1px !important;border-bottom-width: 1px !important;border-left-width: 1px !important;padding-top: 5px !important;padding-right: 5px !important;padding-bottom: 5px !important;padding-left: 5px !important;border-left-color: #dddddd !important;border-left-style: solid !important;border-right-color: #dddddd !important;border-right-style: solid !important;border-top-color: #dddddd !important;border-top-style: solid !important;border-bottom-color: #dddddd !important;border-bottom-style: solid !important;border-radius: 5px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1650351773146{padding-top: 0px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1972&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1650352049166{margin: 10px !important;}&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;3\/4&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1650353014282{margin-left: 10px !important;}&#8221;] <h3 style=\"color:; padding:px; text-align:; font-size:20px; line-height:60px; letter-spacing: 0px; font-weight:bold;\" class=\"  nd_options_text_align_center_responsive_important nd_options_first_font \">Azadi Tower<\/h3> [vc_column_text el_class=&#8221;nd_options_text_align_center_responsive&#8221;]\n<p class=\"nd_options_second_font \">has been the longstanding symbol of Tehran.
