From Wiki: "Persepolis (Greek: Περσέπολις Persépolis; "the Persian city") or Pārsa (Old Persian: 𐎱𐎠𐎼𐎿 Pārsa; "Persia"),[2] also known as Takht-e-Jamshid (Persian: تخت جمشيد‎‎ Taxt e Jamšid; "Throne of Jamshid"), was the ceremonial capital of the Achaemenid Empire (ca. 550–330 BC).

Persepolis is situated 60 km northeast of the city of Shiraz in Fars Province, Iran. The earliest remains of Persepolis date back to 515 BC. It exemplifies the Achaemenid style of architecture. UNESCO declared the ruins of Persepolis a World Heritage Site in 1979.[3]"

From Wiki: "Naqsh-e Rustam (Persian: نقش رستم‎‎ [ˌnæɣʃeɾosˈtʰæm]) is an ancient necropolis located about 12 km northwest of Persepolis, in Fars Province, Iran, with a group of ancient Iranian rock reliefs cut into the cliff, from both the Achaemenid and Sassanid periods. It lies a few hundred meters from Naqsh-e Rajab, with a further group of Sassanid reliefs."
