Shiraz's Shah Cheragh Shrine is a very interesting place to visit, as it gives a good exemple of what Holy Shrines look like in Iran. The dome, with its rosebud shape, is a typical feature of Shirazi architecture. Non-muslims visitors are accompanied by a guide, for free, who give them insight about the place and its history. It's also possible to visit a small part of the interior, to see the mirror-work. Like in all holy shrines, women are required to wear a chador, which can be borrowed for free at the entrance. It's also interesting to visit in the evening, after sunset. The lights makes the place even more beautiful and the atmosphere is very lively, with many families gathering in the yard.

One of the best shrines of Shiraz, 1 of the best muslim holy sites I have ever visited. Beside the stunning glass/mirror interior, the relaxing and meditative garden and the warm hospitality and great spiritual chat with the two girls in the visitors' area (I forgot their names, shame on me...) will give you a great religious experience, similar if not better than many other places in Shiraz (that still remains quite a liberal city considering the amount of religious sites). It's free entrance, freedom to take picture and ask questions (of course, pay respect to the pilgrims who are visiting and praying the tomb). Non muslims and foreigners are warmly welcome and you feel like a guest of honor all the time. Very close to Hafez Tomb.

Ghalat a village where due to its buildings has a long back in history is a village which is located almost 20 km from Shiraz . The village is a mixture of gardens and some houses which are mostly built with roughly shaped stones plus mortar. The village enjoys in its vicinity an eye-catching waterfall. The colorful fruit trees of the region have made the place an amazing destination for all the seasons. Recently, some coffeehouses and fast foods has been established there for the convenience of the visitors.There are so many springs and rivers and have so many camping places like Paye Chenar, Shabshotori, Cheshme Aghaei, Gerdoshahri,……On the top of each fall there is a very beautiful small woodland. Technical climbing is needed to climb and it’s specially good for cliff hangers, but some easy ways allow access. Some parts like Koljoni near Goreye Siyah fall need technical experience to climb. There is an ancient castle called Gezel Arsalan castle on the peak. Archaeologists can go there and search about its civilization. Ghalat village is an ancient village with 2500 years of history. Its houses are like stair way steps, so that the roof of one house is the yard of another. Another extraordinary thing is that village has ancient sewerage system from old era which is remained up to now. Passageways there in the village all covered by stone. The village has an ancient church is called glory of Christ which is surrounded by charming gardens. Ghalat people resisted Mongol attacks in 1732 and because of that, King Nader of that time exempted Ghalat people from paying tax.

Qal'eh Dokhtar is a castle made by Ardashir I( Sassanid era ) in 209 AD. It is located on a mountain slope near the Firouzabad-Kavar road in Fars Province. This palace used to be a residential palace for the royal family, politicians and high profile people. One can reach to castle with staircase which give you different angles from the castle. Although this castle is kind a ruined, its absolutely worth visiting.

Atigh Jame' Mosque is a 9th-century mosque in Shiraz. It is also one of the most ancient religious sites of Shiraz, which is also known as Jomeh Mosque (Friday Mosque). The building of Jame' Mosque had been vastly damaged due to an earthquake and renovated during the rule of Safavid and Qajarid dynasties. Within the courtyard of this mosque, a cubic building has been constructed. The inscriptions of this building have been written during the rule of Sheikh Abu Es'haq Injou. The building of the mosque is so high. It has some chambers and naves and some of its parts have two floors. The mosque has six entrances and exits; one in the north side, one in the south side, two doors in the west side, and two ones in the east side. The turreted Khodakhaneh section is perhaps it's most interesting and intricate feature; although the entire mosque complex -allegedly frequented by Hafiz- is a delight to wander around .
