Farvahar At Zoroastrian Temple

Yazd/ یزد‎ , Iran


A fire temple in Zoroastrianism is the place of worship.
The temple Atash Behram in Yazd was established in 1932.
It is considered a holy Zoroastrian temple which is home to Atash Bahram (Victorious Fire).

The Farvahar above the main entrance to the building is one of the best-known symbols of Zoroastrianism and holds the meaning of "good reflection", "good words" and "good deed".
