The centuries-old Moshajari Caravanserai in eastern Isfahan province is set to be transformed into an astrotourism hub, according to a provincial tourism official.
The development aims to expand nature- and science-based tourism in the region, repurposing the historic site for modern educational and recreational use.
The project reflects a broader strategy by Iranian authorities to diversify tourism offerings beyond traditional cultural heritage sites.
By integrating astronomy and science into the visitor experience, officials hope to attract a new demographic of domestic and international travelers interested in niche tourism products.
