| 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. |
