The most beautiful and decorated mosque is inside the shrine of Imam Reza. You can see pilgrims praying here all the time. You don’t have to be religious or wa to pray to visit this mosque. It is an architectural masterpiece and has a great history behind it. Just visit and let your soul soar with the architecture and peaceful environme here, especially during the night.
