Sheikh Lotfollah Mosque
天天边的海999Foreigners need 200,000 rials, but Iranians only need 30,000! ! The dome is made to look fragile by a bold method, but in fact it is supported by a circle of 170 cm thick brick walls, tall and solid, and has withstood the test of hundreds of years. This witty and bold method uses a huge circular hole and some tall windows to maximize the natural light, gradually weakening the dark blue color on the concentric circles, gradually fading it with soft white Arabic decorative patterns, and the dark blue has naturally disappeared completely when it reaches the center of the dome. It's amazing!
