Rostamkola

Rostamkola (Persian: رستمکلا) is a city in the Central District of Behshahr County, Mazandaran province, Iran.

The origin of the name 'Rostamkela' is not known for certain, but local folklore connects it with a man named Rostam (to be identified possibly with the legendary warrior of that name) who helped unite the people of the area.

The main economic activity is based on Agriculture. Other productions are Avi-culture, Brick manufacturing, Flour manufacturing, Metal Industries and Limestone.

The first school was built in 1925. In addition, Rostamkela has a religious school that was built by Allameh Ayazi.

During the reign of Reza Shah, the Trans-Iranian Railway was constructed and Rostamkela Depot was built at the same time. There is a special railway which conveys from Rostamkela to Amir Abad seaport and a special road will be opened between them soon.

Qanat was used to provide reliable supply water for irrigation in Rostamkela. Rostamkela is located in ancient district which included Gorji Mahale, Asiabsar, Kouhestan, Troujan villages. Gohar Tape is a city (1800–3000 BC) mounded near Rostamkela.

Rostamkela had a powerful economy 200 years ago[when?] because we can see historical buildings that were built about 200 years ago for example Soltani tekye, Haj Hasan tekye, Alizade hoseinie, Farahi hoseinie, Rostamkelaei and Tavakeli Houses. The Imamzadeh building was built 800 years ago.[when?]

There are many beautiful places in Rostamkela such as Mirevoun (Mehravan, a famous place that is located in jungle).
