Magnificent architectural masterpiece that dates back to the 8th century. With its intricate geometric designs, stunning tile work, and towering minarets, the mosque showcases the rich Islamic architectural heritage of the region. The main prayer hall features a vast dome and is adorned with beautifully crafted calligraphy and colorful mosaics. Jame Mosque is not only a place of worship but also a significant cultural and historical site that attracts visitors from around the world.

Abbasi Jama Mosque (Shah Mosque) for sure is one of the most beautiful mosques on muslim world, for everyone who visit Isfahan is a must to visit it

Abbasi Great Mosque also known as Shah Mosque is a early 17th century mosque located on the south of Naghshe Jahan Square (aka Shah Square).
Construction of this mosque was ordered by The Great Shah Abbas of Safavid.
The most fabulous thing about the mosque is its super magnificent tile work of the dome and the gate with a blue background meaning the sky.

Called the Jewel of Iran by Iranian people, this big beautiful Mosque is a must see. With its tile work and classic architecture it is something to behold.

Also they have shops where you can purchase a Holy Quran in different languages, also pickup literature about Shiite Islam, and also speak to an Imam.

This mosque by itself is a sole reason to visit Iran. The greatness of it and it's beauty are incredible. not being religious makes no difference, the Great Abbasi mosque is one of the most beautiful mosques not only in the Arab world, but in the whole world. The surroundings must also be visited, as the whole city and country.
