Abstract

Undoubtedly, death is the biggest unsolved, strange and terrible mystery of man. He/she has always longed for eternity and immortality. Man seeks to create abstract places where there is no death; in this way, he/she convinces himself/herself and comes to rest. Man builds forts, castles, palaces and paradise gardens that show his longing to return to Eden. On the other hand, these buildings refer to a safe place that is impervious to death and provides peace of mind. Var of Jam is one of the most prominent mythological places among the ancient Iranians that has been built to imitate Mitra Palace. There are similar places in the myths of other nations; the most important common point of these places is immortality for those who enter them. The results show that the mythological buildings have much in common with each other. In the present study, by using the analytical-comparative method, these common points are examined.
