A Caspian Sea town in Iran's Mazandaran province, Ramsar sits directly on the water with the Alborz mountains rising to the south, giving it a narrow coastal setting between sea and peaks. It serves as the capital of Ramsar County in northern Iran, with the wider region home to UNESCO World Heritage sites.
