A view of the city of Bam, 1168 km (726 miles) southeast of Tehran, Iran, and a view inside the Citadel of Bam, which was nearly destroyed by a powerful earthquake in 2003 and has been under restoration ever since, on May 3, 2025. The Citadel of Bam, located in southeastern Iran, is the world's largest adobe structure and an example of ancient urban architecture along the Silk Road. This historic fortress, with origins dating back over 2,000 years, stands as a testament to the ingenuity of desert construction and cultural continuity. In December 2003, a devastating earthquake strikes the region, causing the near-total collapse of the citadel and claiming tens of thousands of lives. Since then, the site is under continuous restoration efforts aimed at preserving its cultural and historical significance.
