Highlight: history and architecture Worth a visit?? Absolutely yes Need a tour guide: yes. Every corner is a complete mystery that can be solved by a tour guide. Time of visit: during the daytime Recommended length of visit: 1 hour Photogenic views: yes. Take photograph to your heart’s content. Located in a touristic area? Yes Public transport accessibility? Yes. On a trip to Isfahan, the first suggestion is to visit Naghsh Jahan Square. The Imam Mosque of Isfahan is one of the most significant buildings of the Safavid era, formerly known as the Shah Mosque, the New Soltani Mosque and the Jame Abbasid Mosque. This magnificent mosque dates back to four hundred years ago. Shah Abbas I built this spectacular mosque in the famous Naghsh Jahan (Imam) Square in Isfahan to be a symbol of the science and art of Iranian architecture in the world. A magnificent square to the south of which stands a large turquoise colored dome. In the seven-color tiles of Imam Mosque, blue color is superior to other colors, and the tiles have been used in designs, colors and patterns that give the mosque a heavenly and spiritual atmosphere. Another important and of course interesting point is, a 3D perspective view of this mosque is also available on "Google Earth".
10. Vank Cathedral
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 865 reviews
Reviewed By DubaiYogini - Dubai, United Arab Emirates
The Armenian Quarter is simply stunning! The Vank Cathedral surprisingly has so many valuable artifacts. By the time we got here I was so tired of staring at art on ceilings I was just too exhausted to take in more incredible history lessions so perhaps keep a day for Armenian Quarter. Visit the Music Museum (trust me its more interesting than it sounds) and then eat, eat ,eat. Walk around and check out the charming restaurants and then perhaps go for dessert elsewhere because there are too many spots to choose from. The Vank Cathedral architecture indicates co-existance thousands of yrs back as u see the Islamic dome and the Christian pointed arch.
