shiraz-tomb of hafez
History of Hafezieh
Hafez died in 1390, and in his memory, a small, dome-like structure was erected in Shiraz near his grave at Golgast-e Mosalla in 1452 at the order of Babur Ibn-Baysunkur, a Timurid governor. The Golgast-e Mosalla were gardens (now known as Musalla Gardens) that featured in Hafiz's poetry. The garden covers an area of 19,000 square meters, which is also home to one of Shiraz's cemeteries.
Shah Abbas I, and Nader Shah both carried out separate restoration projects in the following 300 years
A much more substantial memorial was constructed in the gardens in 1773 during the reign of Karim Khan Zand. Situated on the north bank of the seasonal Rudkhaneye Khoshk River in the Musalla Gardens.
After several renovations, destructions, and constructions during history, finally, the current pavilion structure was built in 1935. It is designed by the well-known French architect and archaeologist, André Godard, using Zandieh architecture elements.

isfahan-khaju bridge
Isfahan’s fortunes changed dramatically many times along its tumultuous history. Renowned explorer and scholar Ibn Battuta visited the city in 1327 and described it as “the largest and fairest of cities, but it is now in ruins,” hinting at its former glory. However, three centuries later, Isfahan began rising again, in what can aptly be described as the city’s golden age, when Shah Abbas I (who reigned from 1588 to 1629) made it the capital city of the empire and Shah Abbas II (who reigned from 1642 to 1666) oversaw its rebuilding.
This was a time when Isfahan became one of the largest and most beautiful cities in the world. As Persian culture was flourishing, so was its architecture. Among the many outstanding accomplishments of this era is Khaju Bridge, which connects the Khaju and Takhte Foolad quarters across the Zayanderud River.
The exact date of Khaju Bridge’s completion is not recorded, but it’s known that it was built on top of an older bridge around 1650.

Gonbad-e Qābus
The 53 m high tomb built in ad 1006 for Qābus Ibn Voshmgir, Ziyarid ruler and literati, near the ruins of the ancient city of Jorjan in north-east Iran, bears testimony to the cultural exchange between Central Asian nomads and the ancient civilization of Iran. The tower is the only remaining evidence of Jorjan, a former centre of arts and science that was destroyed during the Mongols’ invasion in the 14th and 15th centuries. It is an outstanding and technologically innovative example of Islamic architecture that influenced sacral building in Iran, Anatolia and Central Asia. Built of unglazed fired bricks, the monument’s intricate geometric forms constitute a tapering cylinder with a diameter of 17–15.5 m, topped by a conical brick roof. It illustrates the development of mathematics and science in the Muslim world at the turn of the first millennium AD.

The tomb of Ismail Samani in
Bukhara, Uzbekistan is one of the most important ancient monuments in Central Asia and the oldest Iranian tomb in history. The construction of this building, which lasted from 271 to 322 solar years, has been underground for several decades and therefore has not suffered much damage over time. In the construction of this tomb, the architecture of Razi style has been modeled and its brickwork has a very beautiful complexity. The building is a square of 10 by 10 meters and has a hemispherical dome in which four small buildings are built in four parts. The dome is based on the room of four phones with the help of a corner, which is comparable to the dome-making method in the Parthian and Sassanid periods, and its style is very similar to Sassanid fire temples.

The Roman historian Procopius writes in the book "History of Wars" in the Iran-Roman Wars section:
"Although what I want to say is not for the benefit of us Romans and it weakens the morale of our soldiers, the truth must be told. Justinian (Roman Emperor) believes that there is a substance in the blood of Iranian soldiers that makes them fearless and fearless and proud...
Iranian soldiers, even if they are captured, unlike other nations, do not kneel before the conqueror and do not express helplessness and beg.
It is not possible to force an Iranian captive into exile or break his pride and character through torture. I don't know what soil and water Iran has that cultivates the seeds of patriotism in the lives of its people..."
