Rawar is a village in Kurdistan province, which is located at the eastern end of Darian Dam Lake. This lake is formed in a long valley along the Sirwan River.
Before the Darian Dam was flooded, the Ravar was a village with stepped architecture on a mountain slope near the Sirwan River, but with the flooding of the Darian Dam in 1994, this stepped village was submerged and therefore some houses were built above the village to house its inhabitants. .
Regardless of the damages that Darian Dam has caused to villages, gardens, forests and historical monuments in the Uraman region of Kurdistan, but it has created a special beauty in this region. Transportation between the village of Ravar and other villages along the lake, such as Selin and Nav, is now done by motor boats. The distance between Ravar village and Darian dam is about 25 km.
Pomegranate orchards adjacent to the village are the remnants of orchards that were saved from being buried under water because they were upstream of the previous location of the village.
Access to Ravar village is via a dirt road that separates from Palangan road to Mariwan.
