Abstract

Introduction: Due to spectacular geographical location, the Province of Yazd, located in the center of Iran, it has been in the center of attention since long ago. It is considered one of the driest provinces in Iran with hot and dry climate, and annual average precipitation of 50-100ml. The day and night temperature varies between 11.9 to 20.7 degrees of Celsius. The special climate in Yazd has resulted in beautiful gardens such as, Moshir- o- Almamalek Garden, which is one the most famous and beautiful gardens in Yazd. It is 18000m2 in area and is located in the north-west of Yazd. It was established by Mirza Fathollah Khan, Moshir - o - Almamalek in Ghajar era. He was in charge of collecting tax in Yazd and when the Governor was absent, he took up the responsibilities. As the elderly people from Yazd say, Yazd was controlled from his residence, i.e., Moshir – o – Almamalek Garden.Material and Method: Literature review and field study were used in this study. This study is descriptive-analytical. Through the restoration of the place, current national and international patterns along with Iranian-Islamic architectural concepts were used. Cameras like Cannon Power shot S5 IS and Olympus C160 were utilized during the field study.Result: Except the central building, the other buildings lack foundation. The most preeminent material used is mud-bricks. In the past, drinking water was supplied by subterranean canals (ghanat). It is now, however, supplied by the city water system. The trees in the garden would be fruit bearing, e.g. fig, vine, apple, etc. Other plants such as olive, persimmon, and citrus have recently been cultivated.Discussion: Using elements such as grass, water, and plants during restoration, which constitute the main elements of ancient Iranian architecture, is vividly observable. This demonstrates the relation between the nature and architecture in the present and past Iran. Transparency, space linkage, organized spaces, space integration, geometry, and symmetry implemented in the garden reflect thought and rationalization in the Iranian garden establishment, which intentionally and consciously pursued physical and spiritual peace for human looking for tranquility.
