Yakhtchal

Description

Persian icehouse structures built partly underground with thick walls and domed roofs. Designed to store ice and perishables through scorching summers, they were feats of both engineering and insulation. Similar structures existed across several Muslim regions. Beyond preserving food, they also contributed to better health and were used to keep unguents and medicines cool and effective.
