Hidden in the plains of southwestern Iran lies the ruins of
Susa—one of the oldest cities ever built.

For thousands of years, Susa stood at the center of power, trade,
and culture. It began as a major city of the Elamite
civilization, later becoming a key royal capital of the
Achaemenid Empire under rulers like
Darius I.

Empires rose, conquerors arrived—including Alexander the
Great—and centuries of history unfolded within its
walls.

Today, only ruins remain. But beneath the earth lies the story of
a city that witnessed thousands of years of civilization.

️ Listen to the episode and stay with the story until the
very end.
