O znamenitosti
Hitre informacije: Glavna molitvena preproga je druga največja enodelna preproga na svetu, tehta 21 ton, ročno pa jo je štiri leta vezlo 600 iranskih žensk. V notranjosti visi pet lestencev, največji v glavni molitveni dvorani meri 14 metrov v višino in tehta 8,5 tone, izdelan pa je iz kristalov Swarovski in pozlačen s 24-karatnim zlatom.
Poudarki: Stopite v glavno molitveno dvorano in poglejte navzdol: preproga v enem kosu brez šiva pokriva 4.343 kvadratnih metrov, njena barvna paleta pa se nežno spreminja glede na čas dneva in kot svetlobe skozi kristalne lestence nad vami. 35 vrat je izrezljanih iz masivnega tikovine z zapletenimi medeninastimi vložki in vsaka se odpirajo v drugačno mozaično dvorišče, ki odseva spreminjajoče se nebo.
Notranji nasveti
- Women must cover hair, arms, and legs; abayas are available to borrow at the entrance if you forget. Skip the guided tour and wander the courtyards first, then head inside when the crowd clears around 10:30 AM. The best photo spot is the reflection pool at the far end of the courtyard, shooting back toward the main dome. Remove shoes before entering the prayer hall, and bring socks because the marble floor gets cold even on hot days.
