Q. ‘Badgirs’ are chimney-like structures, which are ingeniously designed in which country?
Answer:
Iran
Notes: In the desert city of Yazd, Iran, residents have ingeniously designed tall, chimney-like structures called wind catchers or badgirs, which draw in cooling breezes to provide relief from the extreme heat that often exceeds 40 degrees Celsius during the summer.
These architectural marvels are a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to energy-consuming air-conditioners, making them both cost-effective and carbon-free.
