Itinerary description

Spending lovely time in the second biggest square in the world

Waypoints

Sheikh Lotfolah mosque

This mosque is referred to Safavid dynasty. It was made with the order of Shah(King) Abbas. It was used mostly for women and the king's family. This mosque is a little bit different in comparison with the other ones cause it doesn't have minerates. It is under repairment these days,but it is fascinating to spend hours or even days in the mosque to get spiration of being calm and relax.

Shah Abbas Safavi mosque

This brilliant mosque with lovely 42 meter minerates is located in the south of Naghsh-e Jahan square with a unique architecture. The other minerates which are 48 meters can be seen near the 52 meters gigantic dome(these ones can also be seen both from inside and outside with 45 degrees change.

Alighapu palace

6 floors palace located exactly in front of Sheikh Lotfolah mosque used by king Abbas for different purposes like parties,meetings and so on. You can find the music rooms on the last two floors of it. It's a great place for taking pictures from the top near the columns.

Qeisarieh bazar

This bazar is also known as the big bazar of the square. It has many stores with an old view. Spending time in a colorful bazar, people selling different things(some of them shouting and advertise for what they have in their shops( shop is called Hojreh as well).

Many old stuff on the wall!!!! What's going on here? The first question comes to the mind of everyone who first visit here. It is decorated with many beautiful strange things like pictures, knives,antique things and so on. They provide Ghelyan(hacon or shisha), iranian food and different drinks. Tasteful.
