Niasar boasts a well-preserved Sassanian-era fire temple. With each of its four sides aligned to the solstice, this pre-Islamic temple is one of the few non-Indian temples still standing and it shows how the practice of building a dome on top of a square influenced mosque design. The Parthian-era cave nearby was built as a Mithraist temple.
