Have you ever traveled to Lurestan Province? Have you ever visited Dolfan mineral spring? Have you ever been swimming in the Dolfan spa?
According to those who have used Dolfan mineral water, the spa is miraculous and improves health. They believe that the nature of the region is life-giving and unique in the world.
Located 60km west of Dolfan, Lurestan Province, on the foothills of Mount Galeh at the meeting point of three rivers: Gamasiab, Lizeh Rud, and Seimareh, the mineral spring has some special healing qualities.
According to Eskandar Ja’fari, Dolfan governor, a total of 25 liters of hot water comes up naturally from the ground every second, which is good for improving different kinds of skin diseases.
Ja’fari said that with proper funding and planning for the construction of a suitable transportation route, the region would attract a large number of tourists.
Another site in the region is a cave excavated recently in the city of Nurabad 15km southwest of Dolfan by farmers looking for further mineral resources.
The cave contains numerous mineral water springs and beautiful stalactites. There is cool water streaming inside the cave. There are also several small waterfalls in the lower part of the cave. Due to the iciness of the water, descending to the depth of the cave is impossible without making use of mountaineering gear.
Situated 90km from the city of Khorramabad, Nurabad with its beautiful natural attractions, annually draws the attention of ten thousands of tourists. |
