Tourist attractions

Top of most people’s agendas is a visit to the Mausoleum of Hafez- the great master of Persian poetry and one of the most important literary figures of the 14th century.
Visitors to the tomb can still take the omens, or faals, by picking a page at random from a volume of Hafez.

Afif abad Gardens is one of the oldest gardens in Shiraz and home to a former royal mansion and an historical weapons museum.

Eram Garden is a genuinely beautiful network of gardens, as well as a highly decorated palace and a system of small artificial rivers that irrigate the gardens.

The Nasir al-Mulk Mosque was built during the Qājār era and is filled with coloured glass that turns the interior of the mosque into a dazzling kaleidoscope of colour throughout the day, and is full of traditional design elements such as the panj kāseh-i (five concaves).

The traditional Vakil Bazaar is a maze of beautiful courtyards, caravansarais, bath houses, and old shops.

This is regarded as the best place to buy the finest Persian rugs, spices, copper handicrafts and antiques.
