موقعیت
Hamadan sits at about 1,850 m below Mount Alvand, laid out around a central circle from which six avenues radiate. The covered bazaar runs off the circle.
اهمیت این مکان در صنایع دستی
The 'Hamadan' label in the carpet trade covers output from many surrounding villages rather than one workshop style, which is why pieces sold under the name vary so much in structure and quality. Leatherwork and pottery from the province are also traded here.
