Zanjan rugs originate from the ancient city of Zanjan, the capital of the Zanjan Province located in the north-western region of Iran. The city is a major stop on the Silk Routes of Iran and produces a wide variety of fabulous, high quality Persian rugs. Zanjan rugs are not manufactured in one particular region. They are in fact produced in several weaving villages scattered around the region. All of these rugs are then taken to Zanjan Bazar to be sold.
