Shah Mosque

The Shah Mosque is one of the most beautiful historical sites in Iran. On the south side of Naghsh-e Jahan Square, it is positioned. It was erected under the orders of Shah Abbas I of Persia during the Safavid era.

A room adorned in stunning blue and yellow mosaics - known as Shah Mosque until being renamed Imam Mosque after the 1979 Revolution - is the one architectural monument that appears in the great majority of Iran tourist publications. Of course, it's renowned for a reason, which is why it's at the top of our list. You may spend an entire day going about the mosque, admiring its intricate intricacies and uncovering its mysteries. Standing beneath the main dome's center, on a little plaza distinguished by the fact that it is formed of a distinct sort of stone, is an experience not to be missed.

It is considered one of the greatest works of Persian architecture from the Islamic period. The Royal Mosque, together with Naghsh - e Jahan Square, has been designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its construction began in 1611, and the elegance of its seven-color mosaic tiles and calligraphic inscriptions contribute to its opulence.
