Bab Anar

Bab Anar (Persian: باب انار) is a city in the Central District of Khafr County, Fars province, Iran, serving as capital of both the county and the district. It was the capital of Khafr Rural District until its capital was transferred to the village of Zarjan.

At the 2006 National Census, its population was 1,702 in 445 households, when it was in the former Khafr District of Jahrom County. The following census in 2011 counted 6,968 people in 2,096 households. The latest census in 2016 showed a population of 7,061 people in 2,230 households.

In 2019, the district was separated from the county in the establishment of Khafr County, which was divided into two districts and six rural districts, with Bab Anar as its capital.
