Yes about mosques,Statues and landmarks

My mistake. Maybe the title of the page should reflect that - I wonder if Shugs could change it.

Hmm... I'm not entirely sure that Mosques and non-Islamic monuments should be in the same thread... Islamic monuments is perfectly fine to be in here though.

Perhaps a separate thread for Iranian landmarks & monuments is in order...

The Sheikh Lotfollah Mosque in Isfahan, Iran. It's fairly small and doesn't have a minaret but the mosaic tilework, calligraphy and the architecture is truly spectacular. This is a picture of the interior hallway leading to the entrance of the mosque.

Robert Byron, the poet said of the mosque: "I have never encountered splendor of this kind before. Other interiors came into my mind as I stood there, to compare it with: Versailles, or the porcelain room at Shonbrunn, or the Doge's Palace, or St. Peter's. All are rich; but none so rich."

Fatima al-Masumeh Shrine - QOM

The shrine of the sister of Imam Ali ibn-Musu Rida, is located in Qom, the second most sacred city in Iran after Mashhad. Shah Abbas I built the shrine complex in the early 17th century. The shrine has attracted to itself dozens of seminaries and religious schools.

Sheikh Lotf Allah Mosque (Masjed-e Sheikh Lotf-o-llah in Persian or مسجد شيخ لطف الّله ) is one of the architectural masterpieces of Safavid Iranian architecture, standing on the eastern side of Naghsh-i Jahan Square, Isfahan, Iran.

It was built in 1615 by the orders of Shah Abbas I of the Safavid dynasty.

The architect (Mimar) of the edifice was Muhammad Reza ibn Ustad Hosein Banna Isfahani. He finished construction of the mosque in 1618.

مسجد شیخ لطف الله دراصفهان
مسجد شیخ لطف الله درقسمت شرق میدان امام (نقش جهان) قرار گرفته است که به عنوان یک مکان کوچک مقدس درجلوی استخر ودرقسمت سایه دار این میدان در زمان شاه عباس بین سالهای 1602 و1619 میلادی ساخته شده است. نام این مسجد بنام فردی گذاشته شد که یک دانش پژوه ومحقق اسلامی به شمار می رفت ودرآن زمان وی را بسیار ستایش می کردند. شاه درآن زمان این شیخ را که اهل لبنان بود , ابتدا به مشهد ونزدیک بارگاه امام رضا دعوت کرد وسپس وی را در پایتخت به عنوان مسئول مسجد شاه ومدرسه الهیات منصوب کرد. تزیینات ایوان ورودی این مسجد شامل موزاییک های زرد وآبی است که زیبایی آن از ایوان بزرگ مسجد امام پیشی می گیرد. این مسجد کوچک هیچ محوطه داخلی مرکزی ای ندارد و تنها دارای یک جایگاه نماز است که نزدیک راهرو می باشد. اما واقعیت ارزشمنداین مسجدزیبایی موزاییک های دیواری آن دراصفهان می باشد که تا نوک مسجد نیز رسیده اند. در کیفیت مواد آن هیچ نقصی وجود ندارد. توازن و هماهنگی رنگها بی نظیر است . دیوارهای آن با فرشهای بسیار مجللی تزیین شده اند که دارای طرحهای هندسی طلاکاری شده می باشند که بر روی زمینه سبز آبی قرار گرفته اند. درسنگ نوشته ای که بر روی محراب قرار گرفته نام معمار این مسجد ذکر شده است , مرد فقیر و متواضعی که به دنبال بخشش خداوند بود و استاد محمد رضا فرزند استاد حسین نام داشت , وی در1028 هجری شمسی می زیست . این مسجد دارای ویژگیهای عجیبی نیز می باشد چون جایگاه و گنبد لعاب نداده آن , فقدان بارگاه مرکزی و ایوانها و تالارمقدس خالی که از سقف تا زمین با موزاییکهایی با بهترین کیفیت پوشیده شده است. کاشی کاریهای سقف آن یکی ازپیچیده ترین نمونه ها دراصفهان می باشد و کیفیت آن بسیار مرغوب است. این بنا بطور بسیار ماهرانه و زیبا در سالهای 1954 و1956 بازسازی شد.‎
