Zoroastrian Agiary – 光明顶
又爬山，有点怕怕。。。 According to one of the articles I had read, Zoroastrianism is one of the world's oldest monotheistic religions. It was founded by the Prophet Zoroaster (or Zarathustra) in ancient Iran approximately 3500 years ago. For 1000 years Zoroastrianism was one of the most powerful religions in the world. It was the official religion of Persia from 600 BCE to 650 CE. Zoroastrians believe that the elements are pure and that fire represents God's light or wisdom. Zoroastrians worship communally in a Fire Temple or Agiary. I was so happy to visit this Agiary during my trip. Yet, sigh when I get to know that, it was located at the peak of the hill. Again, I had to climb up to the peak…… quite disappointed when I reached to the top. There is nothing except few muddy walls. It was out of my expectation. It is now become a destination for couples to view sunset and sunrise and a destination for hiking lovers. Although I was disappointed with the muddy walls, I was happy as I had this opportunity to view Zoroastrian Agiary which is one of the oldest religious in the world.
