About this place
Khorramshahr is an inland port city in Iran's Khuzestan province, resting on the right bank of the Shatt al-Arab waterway. Located just north of Abadan, it serves as a strategic point near the border with Iraq. The city was heavily damaged during the Iran-Iraq War after being captured in 1980 and subsequently retaken in 1982, shaping much of its modern character.

Planning Tips
- Plan station transfers — Arrange a taxi or local transport in advance to cover the distance from the northeastern train station to the city center.
