It is most beautiful after sunset, when the lighting turns on and the gate glows in the dark. Evening hours are also less crowded and more pleasant for a walk.

O atrakciji
Brze činjenice: Dvije ogromne ruke koje drže otvoreni Kur'an pozdravljaju svakoga tko dolazi u Širaz još od 2005. godine. Ova 32 metra visoka vrata replika su izvornih vrata iz 10. stoljeća, koja je dao izgraditi vladar Adud al-Dawla.
Istaknuto: Svake noći vrata zasjaju stotinama LED svjetala koja naglašavaju kaligrafiju na kamenoj knjizi. Za vedrih večeri mještani vjeruju da svjetlost koja se odbija od staklenog mozaika stvara na okolnim stablima iluziju svjetlucavih zvijezda.
Insajderski savjeti
- Come after dark, when the gate is illuminated with colorful lights and looks magical.
- Stand exactly in the middle of the road (carefully, watch for cars) for a perfectly symmetrical photo.
- Do not limit yourself to just the gate: walk through the small park right next to it with a view of the entire structure.
- Watch out for fast-moving cars, the road leads directly under the gate and there is no separate sidewalk.
