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.

There is an extraordinarily art, a kind of #traditional #tilework in the main entrance of the south prayer hall in the vakilmosque , Shiraz, Iran which is called "Magheli" tiles, that consist of tiny pieces of tiles which form a puzzle-shaped design when put together, picturing words and sentences mostly in Kufic scripts, an islamic art calligraphy.

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 .
