About Mādavān
Where to stay in Mādavān
Not every neighbourhood fits every trip — here's what each one is good for.
A quarter, not a base. Mādavān keeps no lodging trade of its own, and a traveller with an address here is really staying in Yasuj, whose stock of rooms covers every neighbourhood of the Central District without distinguishing between them. Bed scarcity is the rule.
What the name Madavan-e Sofla marks is one piece of the city, so the sensible plan books a room in Yasuj and treats the quarter as the place where the days begin and end.
About Mādavān
What are the main landmarks in Mādavān?
Nothing here is catalogued. The neighbourhood of Madavan-e Sofla holds no listed monument, which leaves a visitor's photographs to Yasuj itself or to the wider ground of Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad rather than to Mādavān. Yasuj takes the attention, and the county keeps the rest of it.
Everyday fabric fills the gap. Houses, lanes and the traffic of a working quarter of Boyer-Ahmad County make up what stands here, an honest account of a place the register names but leaves undescribed.
What is the history of Mādavān?
One quarter, listed under two names. The record gives Mādavān as Madavan-e Sofla, a neighbourhood of Yasuj within the Central District of Boyer-Ahmad County, and that single line of administrative placing is everything documented about the quarter. The two forms belong to one entry.
Mādavān's own beginnings went unrecorded. Whatever preceded the streets as they now stand was never written down, so the story here is carried by Yasuj and by the province of Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad around it.
Where is Mādavān?
Mādavān belongs to the built-up ground of Yasuj, a subtropical stretch of Boyer-Ahmad County in Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad.
