Ramsarرامسر
Spend 1–2 days in Ramsar: hot springs, cable‑car ride, and a stroll on the Caspian Sea beach; add a half‑day trip to Rasht if time permits.
Ramsar is a small Caspian‑sea resort town of about 36 000 people. Its main attractions – hot springs, the Ramsar Palace, a cable‑car over the forest, and a sea‑park beach – are close together, so a short stay covers the highlights. Day trips to nearby Rasht or Babol are easy by road.
