Imam square Imam Square is a square whose area is second only to Tiananmen Square in Beijing. Now it has been listed in the World Cultural Heritage List and is the symbol of Isfahan. There is a large fountain in the center of the square. Rows of tall water columns on both sides of the fountain shoot into the blue sky. The water droplets form a misty scene, which is interlaced into a rainbow under the sun's light. The green grass and numerous flower beds beside the pool and on the square make the whole square look particularly fresh and natural. When night falls, the dreamy lights on the square, together with the intoxicating fountains, are also a good place to take pictures of the night scene.

Imam Mosque The Imam Temple is located on the south side of the Imam Square. It is a masterpiece of Iranian temple architecture and a crystallization of art and architecture. What's special about the Imam Temple is that standing on the Imam Square, you will find that the front door of the temple is not aligned with the seat of the temple. This is because the square stipulates that the main entrance of all buildings must face the square, but all temples must face the direction of Mecca, the holy city. -

Forty Pillar Palace This is one of the important palaces of the Fawei Dynasty, built in 1647. Many precious historical oil paintings and various cultural relics are preserved in the palace. It was named Forty Pillars Palace because of the twenty giant pine columns beside the rectangular pool in front of the temple and their reflection in the pool. The scene of twenty columns reflected into forty columns is not "perfect", nor is it a "wonder" described in the travel brochure. However, it is worthwhile to have a stop by. The walls in the palace are surrounded by exquisite murals, which reflect the scenes of Safavi's daily life, as well as the rare female images in Iran. In addition, the small murals in the cloister in the northeast corner of the palace are also fine works of the Safavid era, which cannot be missed! A fire in 1706 almost destroyed the palace. Now people see the palace rebuilt after the fire. -
Sheikh Rauf Mosque It was built in 1602 and lasted for 17 years. Located on the east side of the Imam Square, it was built by Abbas for his father-in-law, the religious elder Lotfolah from Lebanon, and named after him. The decoration here is based on lemon yellow instead of blue. The materials are superior, and the decoration art is more exquisite. Every inch of the wall shows the royal dignity and style. The ground of the prayer hall is higher than that of the Imam Square. -
Isfahan Mosque Entering the courtyard from the east entrance of the temple, the Ivanmen of the west building has Safavian style decoration, on which you can see mosaic patterns that conform to the geometric shape; The Ivan Gate in the south building has mosaic patterns with Mongolian characteristics and sharp decorative lines; The Ivan Gate in the north is a typical Seljuk style, and the stone columns, dome and honeycomb caisson in the prayer hall behind are all made of mud bricks, which is very simple. It is worth mentioning that in the room of Oljeitu, the Mongolian ruler next to the Ivan Gate in the west, you can see exquisite calligraphy reliefs& nbsp; -
Arikapu Palace Located on the west side of the Imam Square, the palace has 6 floors and is 48 meters high. It was built in 1597-1603. It is a high building in Isfahan and a valuable cultural heritage in the art and architecture fields during the Safavid period. The viewing balcony in the palace is a better place to enjoy the whole Imam Square. There are two stairs in Arikapu Palace. One is a spiral staircase leading to the roof; The other is the "King's Ladder", which leads directly to the pillared balcony on the third floor. This balcony is supported by 18 wooden columns. Ancient monarchs and guests will watch important ceremonies and competitions on the balcony. Today's tourists can overlook the whole Imam Square. In addition, don't miss the concert hall on the top floor. The exquisite dome design makes it sound like a recording studio. It is the place where ancient kings enjoyed music. -
Haojiugu Bridge Hazhu Bridge is another beautiful bridge on the Zaindru River. This bridge was built during the Safavid Dynasty in the 17th century. Like the 33 hole bridge, it is not only used for pedestrians, but also for dams. Both sides of the bridge are the royal gardens of the past. At the end of the bridge, one divine animal can't see its eyes in the daytime. At night, its eyes will shine directly at each other. The space in the arch of the bridge is a good place for Iranian people to have a picnic, and it is still lively at two or three o'clock in the morning. -
Vank Cathedral The exterior of the church looks very simple, but the interior is very beautiful. Around it are all kinds of Jesus statues, Madonna statues and murals, which are very shocking. The roof of the church is a beautiful dome, and the walls are inlaid with tiles. There is also a museum in the church to display the historical exhibits of Isfahan in various periods. What is worth seeing is a hair collected here. Under the magnifying glass, it will be found that the contents of the Bible are engraved on it. In addition, there are very small books in the world.
