The city of Kuraily Asar is located 4 kilometers from another similar city Bazar Asar. The settlement has an irregular shape; the entrance to the city is located between two earthen ramparts where the towers were located. The entire structure was oriented to the cardinal points; in general, in ancient times, many structures were oriented to the cardinal points; apparently in ancient times this was one of the important criteria by which our ancestors built; perhaps this was related to earthly energy.
