You can also book cycling experiences for this part of the town if you’re feeling up to it. But if you’re looking for a way to just relax, Dowlat Abad Garden will make for a romantic night. Yazd is a fantastic place to witness Zurkhaneh Rituals, an ancient sport done with the beating of drums, singing, and music. And since we're in Yazd, we'll take you to the most beautiful rooftop in town, so you can have a stunning view of the whole city under your feet.
