Bonab (Template:Langx)[a] is a city in the Central District of Bonab County, East Azerbaijan province, Iran, serving as capital of both the county and the district.[5] Bonab is 120 km south of Tabriz (the capital of the province), near Lake Urmia. The city is 150 kilometers from Piranshahr, 270 kilometers from Khalkhal, 350 kilometers from Abhar and 450 kilometers from Parsabad.
History
Based on the archaeological signs found in old Bonab city explorations, the history of this city dates back six thousand years. Also the discovery of old earthenware and metal ware and signs of urban civilization prove this ancient history. Bonab has 25 registered historical monuments on the list of Iran's national monuments, out of which, 8 are under protection.
There are human-built remains from Urartu Civilization in the Savar Village near Bonab which dates back to 700 BC and Iron Age. Also, Bonab became very prosperous during the Safavid era and the traditional theme of architecture in Bonab pertains to this era.
Iranian archeologists hope a newly discovered tunnel in Bonab, northwest of Iran, is likely to lead them to the legendary city of Shiz, dating back to 7,000 years ago. Shiz is believed to have been one of the most prosperous cities in ancient Persia and historical documents indicate it housed over ten thousands people during its booming days. Experts cannot, however, agree on the geographical location of the city, which is believed to have been older than Susa, southwest of Iran.[6]
