is Bam restored well?

When I was in Kerman there was a Spanish backpacker who'd gone to Bam on a day trip (a long way to go) he came back saying it was in the process of being restored, some way to go still but he did say it was already well worth visiting. I believe he ended up getting a guided by the local director of the site.
I went to Rayen which was pretty cool - it's a smaller site (about 1/4 the size of Bam) but similar in style.

I went to Rayen (a few years ago) and it had been so well restored that it looked fake.

I have visited Bam several times in these past years, the last visit was in March this year and to my opinion it is well worth the visit. Unesco has enabled the citadel to be rebuilt to a certain extent. It is now possible to visit the stable-area, however, not the Governor's house (the highest point). Unesco wants the impact of the earthquake to remain visible and therefore do not want the citadel to be completely rebuilt.
Rayen citadel is a lot smaller and I agree that it is "perfectly" restored. This appeals to a lot of people, however, I myself prefer Bam to Rayen. Visit both if you can.

Arg-e Bam : before and after

I have sent you some of the photos I made in Bam Citadel this spring by mail. Hopefully they will give you an impression of what you can expect while visiting.

Zafermac, these are the photos showing to which extent damage was done to the citadel, just after the earthquake in 2003. In the past 13 years a lot has been restored

I'm in Bam now, and the Arg has definitely been restored a bit, it looks quite nice, though still incomplete. As others said, if you want a more full-fledged citadel, head to Rayen–it's less out of the way than Bam.

I've been there last year, you can say that even after earthquake it still worth visiting. and some parts were closed to tourists due to restoration. I'll send you some of the photos I took. Hope you find them useful. Arshia
