Aghajari (Persian: آغاجاری), also Romanized as Āghājārī and Āghā Jārī; also known as Aghajari-e Zeydūn and Āqā Jarī,^[3] is a city in the Central District of Aghajari County, Khuzestan province, Iran, serving as capital of both the county and the district.^[4] The language of the people of Aghajari is the same as Masjid Suleiman and Lori Bakhtiari.^[5]
