Birjand
Birjand ( fa, بیرجند , also Romanized as Bīrjand and Birdjand) is the capital of the Iranian province of South Khorasan. The city is known for its saffron, barberry, jujube, and handmade carpet exports. Birjand had a population of 187,020 in 2013. History The first citation of the city in the historical literature belongs to the famous book '' Mojem Alboldan'', by Yaqut Homavi (13th century) which introduces the Birjand as the most beautiful town in the Qohestan.

Apart from literature, the oldest evidence on the history of the region is the ancient Lakh-Mazar inscription in the Kooch ...
