Located in the heart of Isfahan, Naqsh-e Jahan Square is one of the world’s most majestic urban masterpieces — a vast UNESCO-listed plaza framed by Safavid-era architecture, bustling bazaars, and royal history. At its southern edge rises the magnificent Imam Khomeini Mosque, renowned for its towering turquoise domes, elegant minarets and exquisite mosaic tilework. Built in the early 17th century under Shah Abbas I, this mosque is considered the pinnacle of Persian-Islamic art and a spiritual jewel of Iran. Together, the square and mosque offer an unforgettable glimpse into the cultural soul of Iran, where architectural harmony, sacred beauty and imperial grandeur merge into a truly timeless scene.
