Sulaiman Too is a historical and architectural complex at the top and on the slopes of the mountain, where many historical monuments of different eras - such as caves with ancient petroglyphs, the Takht-i Suleiman Mosque, Ravat Abdulla Mosque, the Asaf ibn Burhiya Mausoleum, and the historical museum with a rich collection of archaeological, ethnographic, and zoological exhibits - can be found. Almost every one of these places is a unique ritual object, surrounded by a veil of mystery and legend.
