City of Fuman
Back to home page
Fuman is very green with an area of 1582 sq. kilometers, southwest of Rasht. The city was highly important in the past and was called Dar-al-Emareh -the capital- of the Gilan province. On the gold coins minted in Fath Ali Shahs reign, Fuman-o-Mobaraka(the blessed Fuman) was engraved on the coins to indicate the minting place. Fuman is divided into two parts: Mahalleh Bala (upper neighborhood) and Mahalleh Payeen (lower neighborhood). Gilacs live on the neighboring fields and do not have seasonal migration, they do not change from summer-quarters to winter-quarters and vice versa.
