Owrazan ( Persian: اورازان, also Romanized as Owrāzān, Āvrāzān, and Ūrāzān; also known as Deh-e Avrāzān and Durasān) [1] is a village in Bala Taleqan Rural District, in the Central District of Taleqan County, Alborz Province, Iran. At the 2006 census, its population was 208, in 76 families. [2]
Prominent Iranian novelist Jalal Al-e-Ahmad documented life and culture in Owrazan in his 1954 monograph 'Owrazan': [3]
Owrazan is one of several thousand Persian villages where ploughing is done in a primitive way, and the villagers often fight over the water supply and are deprived of public baths and sufficient supply of sugar for their tea. The ensuing notes have been taken almost at random during my six visits to the village and stay of not less than 12 months there. They form, therefore, neither a travel book nor a study of dialectology or folklore. [4]
