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 znamenitosti
Hitre informacije: Dve ogromni roki, ki držita odprt Koran, pozdravljata vsakega prihajajočega v Širaz že od leta 2005. Ta 32 metrov visoka vrata so replika prvotnih vrat iz 10. stoletja, ki jih je dal zgraditi vladar Adud al-Dawla.
Poudarki: Vsako noč se vrata zasvetijo s stotinami LED luči, ki poudarjajo kaligrafijo na kamniti knjigi. Ob jasnih večerih domačini verjamejo, da svetloba, ki se odbija od steklenega mozaika, na okoliških drevesih ustvarja iluzijo lesketajočih se zvezd.
Notranji nasveti
- 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.
