Āryāshahr, (current name: Fooladshahr, also known as Pooladshahr) is a small city in Iran, situated 25 km south of Isfahan and about 100 km north of Shahrekord (cooridnates 32°28'58"N 51°25'17"E). It was built by the late Shah of Iran, and was home to the mostly Russian and other employees of the "Zob Ahan" factory, which is located near the city, and was the world's biggest of its kind at the time it was built. The world's third biggest cement factory at the time, the "Siman Sepahan" or "Siman Arya" as it was called before the Iranian revolution, is also located near the city.

During the Iran-Iraq war the city and the factories were never bombed by Iraqi bombers, due to the Russian population.

The city was built in the shape of a crown, which was visible from the air. It was nicknamed the "little Paris" by its population due to its many high-rise apartment buildings.but now destroyed. It got its current name "Fooladshahr" after the Iranian revolution.

Also KING IMMORTAL (Javid Shah) has been written on mountain of Fooladshahr and can be see on google earth.
