A lush valley in the heart of the mountains
Lamboru Valley is located in Kahnuj County, in Kerman Province. It is a lush, unspoiled spot with a very pleasant climate. The valley lies on the northern slope of Garuk village. Lamboru is considered an uninhabited tourist area: a very beautiful valley with tall trees and several permanent springs. The remains of stone houses can be seen here, showing that a thriving village once stood in this place.
The name of this old village comes from the lemon tree, pronounced "Lembur" in the local dialect, which was once found in abundance in the valley. Today, however, these trees have completely died out because of drought. In their place, Lamboru has date palms, which draw their owners to the valley at harvest time. Other trees can also be seen in the area, including the sidr (jujube) tree, and the kasur, a mountain tree also known as the wild pistachio.
Two qadamgah (sacred sites said to bear the footprints of holy figures) can also be seen in Lamboru Valley in Kahnuj. They stand among tall palm trees and ancient sidr trees and are respected by the local people. These religious sites have existed here since long ago and, according to the local people, are attributed to Imam Ali (AS) and Hazrat Abolfazl (AS).
