The Shah Mosque of Isfahan

Built during the Safavid period, it is an excellent example of Islamic architecture of Iran, and regarded as one of the masterpieces of Persian Architecture. The Shah Mosque of Esfahan is one of the everlasting masterpieces of architecture in Iran. It is registered, along with the Naghsh-i Jahan Square, as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its construction began in 1611, and its splendor is mainly due to the beauty of its seven-colour mosaic tiles and calligraphic inscriptions.

hi! i just found your blog and i find it beautiful and very 'different' from all the ones around here. I've been scrolling down for a while and i haven't seen any pic of a particular basilic, its called 'Santa Maria Sopra Minerva'. It's in Rome, and its insanely beautiful (all the ceiling is painted in pierceing blue). I thought i should let you know, I'll try to submit some pictures of it later, i know i have lots of them. Keep it up!

Thank you very much! I will try to get a few pictures in, though I'm very busy right now with classes.
