1. Ebru Yahşi from Turkey
It is made of stone and is not suitable for praying. It is open to visitors as a museum except on Fridays. The entrance fee is 250,000 tomans, and hand-painted souvenirs are sold inside the mosque. It is very beautiful.
2. Daniel Tserovski from Bulgaria
It is beautiful; Both outside and inside! The central mosque of the legendary city of Isfahan, which is located in the center of Naqsh Jahan historical square. This mosque, which is a beautiful example of 17th century Iranian architecture, is very popular for visitors.
3. Ilario Bonomi from Italy
One of the few mosques that survived the “change of direction” and went from the orientation towards Bait al-Maqdis (Dome of the Rock) towards Mecca. This mosque, which is completely covered with colorful and shiny ceramics, has a large central courtyard surrounded by prayer rooms and a school. where polite young scholars are available to visitors to explain (in short conversations in excellent English) the salient features of Islam. The eye cannot get enough of this beauty.
4. Roger Schmid from Germany
The entry value is 2,500,000 Rials. They use this amount to renovate the mosque so that people can visit it in the future. This building is impressive and one of the most impressive mosques we visited in Iran. It is also worth visiting at night; Because it glows in the dark with beautiful lighting.
5. Marcin Tatjewski from Poland
For me, it is the most beautiful place I have seen in Iran. Not many tourists there (we visited in October).
