Bandar Abbas

Japanese: バンダル・アッバース(英語表記)Bandar Abbās
Bandar Abbas
An Iranian port city on the Persian Gulf coast. Population: 384,000 (1994). In the Middle Ages, the island of Hormuz on the northwest coast was more prosperous, but in the first half of the 16th century, it became a trading post after the Portuguese arrived. In 1622, Shah Abbas I of the Safavid dynasty occupied it, and it became Iran's main trading port. In the first half of the 18th century, Nadir Shah moved his naval base from here to Bushehr, and the Dutch and British East India Companies closed their trading posts and the city fell into disrepair, but today it has developed into a port city surpassing Bushehr.

ペルシア湾岸のイランの港町。人口38万4000(1994)。中世には北西の対岸にあるホルムズ島の方が栄えていたが,16世紀前半,ポルトガル人の来航によって貿易基地になった。1622年,サファビー朝のシャー・アッバース1世がここを占領,イランの主要貿易港になった。18世紀前半,ナーディル・シャーが海軍基地をここからブーシェフルに移すと,オランダ,イギリスの東インド会社も商館を畳みさびれたが,現在ではブーシェフルをしのぐ港湾都市として発展している。
