Mahdiye Amiri: Nestled within the picturesque landscapes of Leilakuh, where lush tea farms and fragrant Citrus aurantium orchards converge, stand a collection of charming houses that epitomize the region's unique beauty and cultural heritage. These dwellings, seamlessly blending local architectural elements with innovative design, serve as tranquil retreats amidst the verdant bounty of nature.

Inspired by the iconic tea leaves that carpet the surrounding hillsides, the roofs of these houses mimic the graceful curvature and texture of tea foliage. Each roofline undulates gently, evoking the tranquil rhythm of the land and paying homage to the area's thriving tea industry. This architectural homage to the tea plant not only celebrates its economic importance but also reflects the deep connection between the people of Leilakuh and their natural environment.

From the elevated vantage points of these tea leaf-inspired rooftops, residents are treated to sweeping vistas of the lush jungle and verdant valley below. The dense canopy of trees teems with life, while the valley stretches out in a patchwork of vibrant greens, punctuated by the shimmering waters of meandering streams. Inside these homes, a blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern comforts creates inviting living spaces that seamlessly merge with the surrounding landscape. Warm wood accents and earthy tones evoke a sense of rustic elegance, while large windows frame panoramic views of the picturesque scenery outside.

In this tranquil haven where tea farms and Citrus aurantium orchards intertwine, these houses stand as testaments to the enduring beauty of Leilakuh and the deep-rooted connection between its people, their land, and the bountiful gifts it bestows.
