Six miles beyond the first stage from Teherán, on the road to Hamadán, are the ruins of a stone caravánseráï and of two wells. The caravánseráï is called sangi ‘the stone one.’ It appears to have been one of the many caravánseráïs built in the sixth century by Anúshírván the Just. Ruins of a caravánseráï, exactly like this one, are to be seen at Ahúán, a stage beyond Semnán on the high road to Meshed, and there the legend says that it was one of Anásishírván's constructions. The distribution of the rooms and stables in these two old caravánseráïs is very different from that of the more modern ones.
