Tour to Iran. Part 3: Shiraz, Persepolis and visas to Iran

Shiraz is a large city in southwestern Iran, located at the foot of the mountains, which makes its climate mild and suitable for growing wine. There are no vineyards since the revolution of 1979, but the city still remains the birthplace of the drink of the same name, flowers and poets.

City Shiraz is a must for any classic Iran tour. There is an airport here, so very often tourists arrive in the city in the evening, and in the morning they begin to explore the city and sights.

1. The Nasir-ol-Molk Mosque is a beautiful complex that combines bright stained-glass windows with expertly painted walls and traditional architecture. It is best to come here in the early morning, with the rays of dawn.
2. Karim Khan Fortress is an 18th century building with an area of 4,000 square meters. The inside of the room is decorated with gold paintings. One of the towers of the fortress tilted, which is associated with the Leaning Tower of Pisa.
3. The Vakil complex - a mosque and a market, are located next to the fortress. Local souvenirs and goods can be purchased at the market.
4. The tombs of the poets Hafezia and Saadi are beautiful complexes with a park area. For the Iranians, these poets are as revered as Taras Shevchenko is for us. Their tombs are richly decorated and cause great aesthetic pleasure.

Other sights of the city worth seeing are the Eram Garden, the Ghavam Orange Garden, the Koran Gate and the Shah Cherag Temple.

  

Located just 50 km from the city Persepolis - the ancient capital of the Persian Empire, the same city that Alexander the Great captured in 330 BC. The city occupies a large territory, and it takes several hours to explore it. It leaves a lasting impression on tourists!

There is also a royal tomb nearby. Nakshe-Rustam, former capital Achaemenid Pasargadae and the tomb of Cyrus the Great. All these sights can be seen during an excursion to Persepolis from Shiraz or on the way to Yazd.
