| Sattarishahr was originally planned as a {{wp|new city}} to ease pressure on the then capital, [[Zahedan]]. However, the congestion of Zahedan, coupled with a desire to reduce the logistical burden on the city resulted in the government deciding to use the existing plans to construct a new capital. The master plan was designed by Zorasani architects, [[Hamid Ali Shabestari]] and [[Farhad Hadadifar]] and divides the city into nine zones, including government, a diplomatic quarter, residential, commercial, cultural, educational and industrial. A significant focus of the masterplan was placed on green spaces, a reduction in density of buildings and integration with nature. The 2010 decision for the new city to become the capital was followed by alterations to the masterplan, which now included space for national monuments and a enlarged government zone. Construction of the city also included the establishment of a new national park encompassing the Abolkhayr foothills of the Tinin Mountains, and the construction of an artificial lake in the heart of the city. The city includes landmarks such as the [[Mausoleum of the Union Fathers]], [[Mahrdad Ali Sattari Monument]], [[Sardar Javad Jahandar Culture Centre]], [[Sattarishahr Garden Conference Hall]] and the [[Mahyar Vaziri Grand Mazar]], the world’s fifth largest Mazar.
