Shah-e-Cheragh holy shrine in Shiraz


Iran is home to breathtaking sites of worship. Although these structures are places of worship, one can’t resist of admiring of how these Islamic structures are designed and constructed. The grave of holy Shah-e-Cheragh shrine, the son of the 7th Shiite Imam, make Shiraz a pilgrimage site for Iranians. The monument has been discovered in 11th century and a shrine was built over it afterwards. The shrine was repaired during Safavid dynasty once but the major repairs was after destructive earthquakes in Qajar period. Visiting the shrine gives you serene and peaceful feeling. You don't need to have faith to be drawn to this shrine. Popular for its spiritual and cultural value, our travelers from Netherlands visited Shah Cheragh and Nazanin, Uppersia’s professional tour guide, accompanied them.
