The holy shrine of Shah Cheragh:

In the heart of Shiraz there is a holy shrine which gives this city a great credit that attracts so many pilgrims from different cities and countries all around the world. The one who has been buried there is the brother of eighth Imam of Shia Muslims. This shrine persuades everyone to convert to divine mysticism.

Just close to the grand bazaar of Shiraz this shrine shines like a diamond and let your soul ascend. While entering you feel a sense of comfort and glory but it is just a beginning because the magnificent architecture, hospitable people and special circumstances help you submerge in wonder.

There are usually guides inside the complex to accompany you while visiting and they all know foreign languages especially English.

After entering you face a big yard but there is also another bigger one awaiting you. Two shrines invite you to show one of the most beautiful Iranian architecture styles. The first on the right side includes a shrine and a big chapel and the one on the left side is small but nice and cozy.

       

The mirror work is something which draws your attention everywhere, besides the great adorable tile works which are really special and unique in Iranian architecture.   

At the southern corner of the complex there is a gate which takes you to a weird monument whose function was being a symbol for people to simulate the Hajj event; the Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca.

In old times people gathered there to practice the rituals of Hajj before leaving their homes for Mecca in Saudi Arabia.     

 No matter in which religion you believe but Do not miss visiting there 

To visit this great place you should go towards grand bazaar and remember that almost everywhere you can find some guidelines leading you there.
