Brief Description
"Founded by Darius I in 518 B.C., Persepolis was the capital of the Achaemenid Empire. It was built on an immense half-artificial, half-natural terrace, where the king of kings created an impressive palace complex inspired by Mesopotamian models. The importance and quality of the monumental ruins make it a unique archaeological site."
波斯波利斯
"波斯波利斯是古代阿契美尼德帝国的首都，兴建于公元前518年。在美索不达米亚诸都城的启发下，大流士一世在一块儿无垠的半人工半天然台地上修建了一座拥有众多宫殿的建筑群。波斯波利斯古城遗址提供了许多关于古代波斯文明的珍贵资料，具有重要的考古价值。"
