点评:A Hauntingly Beautiful Glimpse into Zoroastrian History
Visiting the Towers of Silence was one of the most memorable experiences in Yazd. Set on two hilltops just outside the city, the site feels calm and atmospheric, with wide desert views and a peaceful silence that truly lives up to its name. Climbing to the top is a bit steep but manageable, and the view at sunrise or sunset is magical.
Learning about the Zoroastrian funerary traditions adds a deep cultural layer to the visit. The surrounding abandoned buildings and pathways give the whole place a timeless, almost spiritual feel.
Tips for visitors:
• Go during sunrise or sunset for cooler weather and beautiful light.
• Wear comfortable shoes—the climb is short but on loose gravel.
• Combine the visit with a quick stop at the Zoroastrian museum in Yazd to understand the rituals better.
A must-see if you’re interested in history and culture—quiet, reflective, and uniquely Yazd.

参观寂静之塔是亚兹德最难忘的经历之一。它坐落在城外两座山顶上,氛围宁静祥和,拥有广阔的沙漠视野和名副其实的宁静祥和。攀登山顶略显陡峭,但并非难事,日出日落时的景色更是美不胜收。
了解琐罗亚斯德教的丧葬传统,为此次参观增添了深厚的文化底蕴。周围废弃的建筑和小径赋予了整个地方一种永恒的、近乎神圣的氛围。
游客小贴士:
• 日出或日落时前往,天气凉爽,光线宜人。
• 穿着舒适的鞋子——攀登路程较短,但路面松散,需要注意安全。
• 参观期间,不妨在亚兹德的琐罗亚斯德教博物馆短暂停留,更好地了解当地的宗教仪式。
