Belqeys Spring Garden, Persian garden in Karreh Shahbazi, Iran.
Belqeys Spring Garden is a Persian garden in the mountains of Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad Province that combines water features with traditional planting design. The layout uses the hilly terrain to integrate natural water flows into its overall concept.
The garden was established in 1948 and underwent further developments in 1959, reflecting Pahlavi-era architectural principles. These construction phases shaped the overall structure according to the design standards of that time.
The garden displays classical Persian gardening principles through its water systems and plant arrangements that visitors can observe in its layout today. This design approach remains central to how the space looks and functions.
The garden is accessible year-round, though spring months provide ideal conditions for viewing the water features and plant life at their best. The mountainous location means sturdy footwear is recommended for walking the grounds.
The garden's position within the Zagros mountain range creates specific environmental conditions that shape its plant composition in unusual ways. This elevation also influences how water naturally flows through the landscape.
