Insider tip — The Kornasian Hammam in Dezful is part of the historic fabric of one of Iran's most architecturally distinctive cities, where the network of underground shovadan chambers allowed life to continue through summers of brutal Khuzestan heat. Near the ancient sites of Susa and the Sassanid bridge, Dezful's hammams served a city in the cradle of Elamite civilisation — one of the most ancient continuously settled regions on Earth, where urban life began over five thousand years ago in the plains of southwestern Iran.
