      About the Climate of Hamedan

      Hamedan is located in a temperate mountainous region to the east of Zagros. Due to the strong winds that almost last throughout the year, the vast plains of the north and northeast of the province are influenced. Which makes Hamedan one of the coldest cities in Iran. Heavy snowfall is expected during winter which may last for up to two months. Also, the short summertime has mild, pleasant, and mostly sunny weather.
