CITY
Shiraz, the poetic heart of Persia, unfolds its tales in the shadows of fragrant gardens and ancient citadels. A city where the whispers of Hafez and Saadi linger in every courtyard, and the Nasir al-Mulk Mosque bathes in a kaleidoscope of morning hues.
Amidst vineyards where the aroma of Shirazi grapes dances, Shiraz invites travelers to traverse its historic corridors, where the pink petals of spring blossom like verses. In the depths of the Vakil Bazaar, amidst Persian carpets and spices, Shiraz weaves a narrative of culture and sophistication—a timeless ode to Iran's rich heritage.
