Treasures of Shiraz

An immediate glance and you’ll probably notice that rich culture and traditional history are two of Shiraz’s most prominent features. With so many amazing sights, putting together a compilation of sightseeing in the heart of Iran’s hospitality, Shiraz, is no easy task. Uppersia suggests you treasures of Shiraz, three of must-see places in this city, for those who wants to make the most of their trips in in this four-season city of art and poetry.


Eram Garden

The garden with its delicate and rare flowers, stimulative atmosphere, tall cypresses and fragrant myrtles is a major tourist destination especially in the spring. This botanical garden was established during the Seljuk Dynasty on the orders of the celebrated Seljuk monarch and it was restored and repaired by the Zand kings in 1750. Although that is not to say the other gardens such as Afif abad, Delgosha and Jahannama aren’t high-quality and worth a visit. But Eram Garden, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is a stunning attraction which offers an attractive variety of horticulture and floriculture.
