Ahvaz

Ahvaz, one of the hottest places in Iran with temperatures regularly reaching 50C, was heavily damaged during the Iran-Iraq War. The most interesting sites is the tomb of Daniel dating back to 18th century. Karun river running through the city is also very pleasant. Ahvaz is a good base for visiting the ancient Achaemenian capital Shush and the Ziggurat-Choga Zanbil.
