Jamaluddin Kola Village

Jamaluddin Kola is an unspoiled, tranquil destination in Mazandaran Province, located in Chahardangeh District of Sari County. The village lies 20 km southeast of the town of Kiasar, on the slopes of Mount Shahdezh. Set at the bottom of a lush mountain valley, it offers magnificent natural scenery. As a summer pasture area (yeylaq), Jamaluddin Kola enjoys cool, delightful summer weather, and together with the mist, rain and greenery of the Hyrcanian forests, it gives visitors an unforgettable experience.

The village is known as the "Village of the Sadat" because all of its residents are descendants of the Prophet (Sadat). According to the 2016 census (1395 SH), the village had a population of 39, reflecting a decline in population caused by the geographic and climatic conditions of the area. Even so, Jamaluddin Kola remains a popular destination for nature lovers and for those interested in the history and culture of the region. Its attractions include a river that flows through the village, numerous springs, the Hyrcanian forests and the surrounding mountains. In addition, the shrine of Imamzadeh Ebrahim at the start of the village access road and Imamzadeh Janpir on top of the mountain are among the area's other religious and historical attractions.

To reach Jamaluddin Kola, drive from the city of Sari toward Kiasar. About 15 km beyond Kiasar, turn onto a steep side road that leads into the forested valley and the village of Jamaluddin Kola. The best time to visit is summer, when the cool weather and lush nature make it ideal for walking and exploring the outdoors. Practising responsible nature tourism, such as not leaving litter behind and respecting the environment, is essential to preserving the beauty of this area.
