Kuhpayeh (Persian: كوهپايه)[a] is a city in Tudeshk District[b] of Kuhpayeh County, Isfahan province, Iran, serving as capital of the county.[4] It was the capital of the district[5] until its capital was transferred to the city of Tudeshk.[4] Kuhpayeh is an historic city 70 kilometres (43 mi) east of Isfahan and where the film The Stoning of Soraya M. is depicted.[6]
The town has a distinct language/dialect of Farsi, known as "Velayati" or " Kuhpaye'i" and very similar to the Gazi language, which belongs to the northwestern Iranian languages (Indo-European -> Indo-Iranian -> Iranian -> Western -> Northwestern II -> Tatic -> Kermanic/Central Plateau -> Southwestern -> Velayati/Gazi).
At the time of the 2006 National Census, the city's population was 4,417 in 1,200 households,[7] when it was capital of Kuhpayeh District[c] in Isfahan County.[5] The following census in 2011 counted 4,587 people in 1,335 households.[8] The 2016 census measured the population of the city as 5,518 people in 1,765 households.[2]
In 2021, the district was separated from the county in the establishment of Kuhpayeh County and renamed Tudeshk District, with Kuhpayeh as the new county's capital.[4]
