Kish has a long history of cultivating palm trees.
Most travelers who have visited Kish in past centuries have mentioned
the island's dense palm groves. Unfortunately,
most of them have been destroyed in the past decades.
"Bagh-e Behest" is the only remaining palm grove from past times
and is situated in the west of the Safeyn district.
It is one of the island's most beautiful groves and is especially
spectacular at sunset. In the last decade, KFZO
has paid special attention to palm trees in its landscape design for
Kish Island. The Tolou (Sunrise) and Ghoroub
(Sunset) palm groves are examples of this. Tolou
palm grove is in the east of the island, with almost 15kms of area space
and its saplings were planted in 1994.
