    The Palace of Ardashir I, also known as the Atesh-Kadeh or Fire Temple, is an impressive Sasanian-era monument located near Firuzabad in the Fars province of Iran. Built around 224 CE by Ardashir I, the founder of the Sasanian Empire, it served as a royal residence and a symbol of his power and authority.

    The palace is a significant example of early Sasanian architecture, featuring three large domes, a grand iwan or arched porch, and a unique design that is a precursor to later Sasanian palaces.
