The tomb of Cyrus the Great is the most important and famous among the various buildings of the Pasargadae complex. Many people are familiar with this ancient and historical site with this structure and to see it, they travel a long way to reach Pasargad. The tomb of Cyrus is located in the southern part of the complex and is said to have been built by Cyrus himself and under his supervision. A tomb with a simple but very beautiful and impressive structure that with an area of 156 square meters and a height of 11 meters after 25 centuries is still standing in the middle of Marghab plain. This structure has a clever design that reminds every viewer of ancient ziggurats and shrines and attracts attention from all over the plain with its simplicity and attractiveness. This tomb has a two-part structure, which includes a stair platform and a tomb chamber with a truss roof.
