Sheikh Lotfollah Mosque
天天边的海999Foreigners need 200,000 riyals, Iranians need only 30,000!! Its dome uses a very bold method to make it look thin to a fragile degree, in fact, its dome is supported by a circle of brick walls up to 170 centimeters thick, tall and strong, has been tested for hundreds of years. This clever and bold approach is to maximize natural light with a large round hole and some tall windows, gradually weakening the dark blue color on the concentric circle, gradually faded with a soft white Arabic decorative pattern, The dark blue has naturally disappeared completely by the time it reaches the center of the dome. It's amazing!

Imam Mosque
此此心无障A large and empty mosque has basically no function of worship and prayer. The main dome has been repaired, and scaffolding has been damaged and beautiful. The echo of the foot in the center of the main hall is very shocking.

Khaju Bridge
天天边的海999From the traffic map, there is a No. 1 car or No. 28 car to Hazhu Bridge. It takes about 30 minutes to walk from the 33-hole bridge.
