Naqsh-e-Jahan Square, Isfahan

This is the great square made by Safavid kings in, the then capital of Iran, Isfahan in 16th. There's a special monument on each of the four sides of the square. Sheikh-Lotfollah mosque is in the right, Ali-Qapu Palace in the left, Qeisariieh Bazzar in front and Shah Mosque in behind. Posted by Picasa

Imressive place. Looks like they're doing some construction work on one of the buildings.

Thanks Nicola. As you see, Ali-Qapu Palace is under restoration. I'll post more of the square and its monuments.
