Kalardasht summer resort is located in the west of Mazandaran and at a distance of 50 km from Chalus city. In this region, due to the distance from the sea and the presence of high mountains, a climate has emerged that is cold in most months of the year. The central plain of Klardasht, with a height of approximately 1250 to 1350 meters above sea level, is distinguished from the mountainous areas and has provided the possibility of settlement for residents since ancient times. In the architecture of the houses of Klardasht, even in the houses of the lords, not exist a trace of the glory and greatness of native knowledge, as we see in the elements of desert architecture such as wind turbines and reservoirs, and not a trace of the poetic nature of human art such as slimy and tile works. The houses are simple. Wood and dirt, sitting in wood and dirt.

The exterior of the Indigenous houses was simple. Few and small square windows, which were called holes, and the entrance, which usually had relatively wide platforms on both sides, represent the simplicity and simplicity of rural life. Installation of these small windows was done in order to save energy, in addition to maintaining security and protection from thieves and intruders. In general, due to the cold weather in most of the year, the architecture of the windows was such that by maximum use of sunlight, taking advantage of the daily temperature fluctuation, maintaining heat and preventing the cold winter wind in residential spaces.

Also, in the past, these houses were next to each other and connected to each other and had a common yard, which often brought together the households belonging to the same family and sometimes created a complex (neighborhood) that was known by the name of the same family. In the design of the interior of old houses, after entering from the main door, there was a relatively wide space called the porch. The porch was led to the inner space by corridors.
