Iran in terms of architectural culture - urbanization and the wealth of its valuable historical works, without a doubt, is one of world's most significant countries, works that must be very well maintained.

One of the major issues in current architecture and urbanization of a country is the preservation of its urban spaces and ancient historical architecture and the different viewpoints on how to preserve these spaces and valuable old buildings.

Since these works represent the historical identity of their own time, we should diligently preserve and protect these structures as symbols of national culture and the bond between yesterday, today and the future generations.
