芳芳330:“The Chinese call it the Pink Mosque because the morning sun shines into the room through the stained glass windows, casting a beautiful pink hue on the entire mosque. Unfortunately, we went there in the summer, and the mosque opened at 8 a.m. When we entered at 8 a.m., the sun had risen too high, and the angle was wrong, so we could not see the pink color of the entire room, but only the beautiful shadows of the stained glass windows. You can only see pink in spring, autumn, and winter.”
欧阳肖云:“Every inch of light is folded from every small piece of glass inlaid on the wall. I am sure that everyone who comes here will be amazed by such a beautiful and magnificent splendor. Here you can experience different exotic cultures and feel different lives...”
芳芳330:“Originally, I wanted to go to the Tomb of Hafez to see the night view. But who would have thought that it would suddenly close at 7pm on the day I went there, and I was not allowed to enter at 6:30pm (the scenic spot was originally open until 10pm), so I had to choose to come during the day the next day. As soon as I entered the door, I could hear the loudspeakers playing Hafez's poems non-stop. Although they were read in Persian and I couldn't understand them at all, just listening to the charm of the poems made me feel very good and calmed my heart. Hafez was the most famous poet in Iran in the 14th century. It is said that every Iranian family has a collection of Hafez's poems in addition to a Koran. When I came to his tomb, I realized that so many Iranians came to worship him, and he was indeed very popular! The store has a Chinese collection of Hafez's poems, which is priced at US$23.”
chaojile:“The Quran Gate is a decorative gate built in the north of Shiraz a thousand years ago. Karim Khan once placed a copy of the Quran in a small room on top of the gate to seek blessings. Under the influence of the Quran, this gate will bless the people of Shiraz to return safely.”
东张西望望东西:“It is so beautiful that I don't know how to use adjectives. Gorgeous and noble are not enough to describe it. To say it is luxurious is to belittle the significance of this place to the locals. I can only say that I am dazzled by it. Even the department stores in Paris have not made me so fascinated.”
chaojile:“The Paradise Garden is a Persian garden listed as a World Cultural Heritage by UNESCO, famous for its tall trees. The garden has a history of more than 900 years. Although it was built during the Qajar period, it incorporates landscape elements from the earlier Seljuk period. The main thing to see in the Paradise Garden is flowers and plants, but there is also a small palace building that is not open to the public. Outside is a small pool connected to a long fountain waterway.”
东张西望望东西:“The hotel is very close to the Grand Bazaar, which is also the largest market in the area. There are no clear price tags, so you have to bargain with your mouth. I found that there are many Chinese businessmen. If you want to buy some souvenirs, you can come here. Remember to bargain.”
还不曾去过倒悬山!:“Golestan Palace, the most famous collection of Saadi's poems, is a rose garden inspired by the roses of his hometown. I read a few lines. This place is really pleasant, and you can't help but sway your mind. The branches and leaves of the trees are entangled. The garden here has clear water, and there is a small forest with chirping birds, flowers in the garden, and fruits in the forest.”
120***75:“It is a food city with a dedicated parking lot next to it. The first to fourth floors have different flavors, the environment is high-end, and the waiters are very professional. The portion size of the dishes is relatively large. The recommended roasted lamb slices are a bit old, and the fried spring rolls are meat and cheese.”
正义的力量:“Niayesh HOTEL is the place to stay in Shiraz. It is said to be the only hotel in Shiraz with a courtyard, and there is a mosque at the door. There are many wooden pavilions with single doors in the courtyard for tourists to rest, eat, sleep, and lie down. The room has floor-to-ceiling colored glass windows, and the sunlight shines in beautifully. There are two single beds and a double bed, and it is quite clean. 89 dollars a night including breakfast.”
天边的海999:“The lamb shanks are super delicious, and don't miss the self-service salad bar. Although it is called a salad bar, it has a variety of vegetable salads, yogurt, pasta, and desserts. There are also performances on the first floor. I sat in the middle of the second floor and enjoyed the food.”
天边的海999:“The decoration of this restaurant is very Iranian, and the price is reasonable. The grilled lamb chops in this restaurant are very good. Even better than Sandize in Tehran. The environment may be a traditional Iranian restaurant, so the decoration is average. There are also many Iranians eating there. The food is served very slowly, probably because it is freshly grilled.”
