Posted by Soodabeh (Yazd, Iran) on 3 September 2007 in Architecture and Portfolio.
This is a building that had the role of a refrigerator last decades. Desert living people stored snow or ice in this place in winter. It could remain cold until the hot summer days. Many of these architectures are still in desert towns. Nobody use them. I captured this one in Abarkuh, one of the cities of Yazd province.

Another most fascinating shot, Soodabeh! :) I love your pictures of these amazing structures and brilliant architecture that are so little seen and appreciated in the mass of the world today. Thank you for sharing these with us. :) I also like the beautiful composition of this one; very lovely colour contrast. :)

This is really amazing. I have never heard or seen such huge things. It would have been nice if you could get someone stand just in front of this structure so that we can get a p respective. Just a suggestion.

Beautiful shape, well fitting into the landscape! We also have these ice-storage places for rich people from before the time of refrigerators, to provide ice for cooling their desserts (icecream, drinks) during summer. Ours are by far not as beautiful as yours, they are simply small hills in parks and gardens. Fine minimalistic picture!

عجب زاویه ای. خوشحالم که از معدود یخچال هایی است که دوروبرش خالیه!!! از این که معماری ایران را با عکس به دنیا معرفی می کنید ممنون! کاری که خود معمارها (از جمله من) نمی کنند:(
