A tranquil rock cleft in the heart of the arid mountains of Qaen
Tajarg Cave is located northeast of the village of Tajarg, about 30 kilometres west of the city of Qaen. The cave lies at the foot of a rocky mountain and consists of one main chamber and five smaller side caves. Over the years, the floors of these caves have been altered by human presence, and the site has particular historical and archaeological importance.
The cave entrance is about two metres above the ground. In front of it lies a wide area with an uneven surface, which gives the surroundings of the cave a distinctive, natural character. The floor of the main chamber is also very uneven because of fallen rocks from the ceiling, which has helped the place remain pristine and untouched.
Near the cave flows a mineral spring called "Torshab", whose water contains minerals and sulphur. Water sources like this, together with favourable living conditions, mean that Tajarg Cave is recognised as a settlement of early humans and is of great importance in the archaeological and historical study of the region. Visiting the cave is an excellent opportunity for those interested in history and nature.
