Shiraz Briefly

 

A settlement from Achaemenid times. To an Iranian, the very mention of the name of Shiraz will evoke an elegy to a unique sophistication, an art of living present nowhere else in the world, the product of an ancient and learned civilization. Shiraz is an opulent oasis of greenery and culture in an otherwise barrenlandscape; it is the town of roses, of nightingales, of love and, at one time,of wine. But above all, Shiraz is the town of the poetry of Saadi and of Hafez. The first capital of Fars, some 2500 years ago, was Pasargadae (is located neartoShiraz). It was also the capital of Achaemenid King Cyrus the Great. The ceremonial capital of his successor, Darius, and his son Xerxes the GreatwasPersepolis. Today, only the ruins of these two capitals remain. Estakhr was another capital of Fars. It was established by the Sassanians and lasted until Shiraz finally assumed the role of the regional capital.  Shirazreally prospered from the early Islamic era, quickly developing into a walledcity. Local disputes between warlords during the 11th—12th centuries causedproblems, but Shiraz largely escaped severe damage by the Mongol armies and itstactical surrender to Timur Leng in1395 rewarded by great prosperity under hisgrandson's governorship. The good fortune was not to last. In 1668 severeflooding brought death and outbreaks of plague. The citizens had barelyrecovered when the Afghan rebels, destroying the remnants of Safavid authority,set about massacring the population in 1725. However, under the rule of KarimKhan Zand (d 1779, and still remembered with great affection today) and hisdescendants, Shiraz regained its former prosperity as the Zand capital for some20 years in the second half of the 18thcentury. Those days of tolerance wereshort-lived; 15% of the population were Jewish in the early 19th century, butfew Jews remain today.

In Iranian culture, walking behind the Quran, when you are going to go to travel, cause bring auspicious moments throughout the journey. Thus, they had installed the holy book to cause lucky things. The besides of this gate is a highway to Isfahan and Tehran cities, nowadays; but there was Allahu Akbar valley about 50 years ago. Kkajoo Kermani tomb is on top of this site and let's take a look, it has a fantastic scene, also one of the eight known Qajar rock-reliefs, cl 824, showing Fath Ali Shah (d 1834) on a throne dais supported by two angels, with two of his numerous sons in attendance. Recently, these hillsides have been landscaped with terraces, water cascades and the odd kiosk, and a tea house, the Khajou.

On the first level, there is a white stone structure like an open veranda (ayvan) fronted by a corbelled arch and three pillars in the middle. A statue of Khajoo Kermani carved out of stone and a wall inscription of his poems are the other features of this veranda. The stairway on the upper level leads visitors to an unroofed space laid out around the grave of the poet. The round gravestone, enclosed by a glass box, has no inscription and lacks information concerning the owner of the grave.

This structure is famous for its aesthetic beauties that force its visitors to walk with their heads held high above because the ceiling is much more impressive. It is also registered on Iran National Heritage list. Shiraz had been under the constant attention of Karim Khan Zand during his reign as it was chosen to be the capital city of the time. He constructed several buildings which were later called as Vakil Complex. These buildings contain a mosque, bazaar, bath, water storage, citadel, and many more. It is said that Karim Khan Zand was eager to resuscitate the priceless history of Iran. This ancient artwork is discerned for a great dignity and magnificence which is hard to find in any other historic baths. Such a feature has transformed Vakil Bath to a notable and admirable mansion of Zand Dynasty. Today, Iran Cultural Heritage Organization has made a lot of attempts to renovate some ruined parts of Vakil Bath in order to preserve the ancient Persian culture and the Iranian identity. Archaeologists have taken the decorations and architectural details under a careful examination and they have drawn the conclusion that they are inspired by Safavid architecture. One special fact about ancient baths that should be noted here is that they were not just normal baths for cleansing the body. The other function they used to have was to be a place for particular ceremonies like baby shower, marriage proposals, and other old marriage traditions. However, these traditions are no longer held in Vakil Bath for the time being

Persepolis

Persepolis, Old Persian Parsa, an ancient capital of the kings of the Achaemenian dynasty of Iran (Persia), located about 30 miles (50 km) northeast of Shiraz in the Fars region of southwestern Iran. In 1979 the Persepolis was designated a UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITE. Though archaeologists have discovered evidence of prehistoric settlement, inscriptions indicate that construction of the Persepolis began under Darius I, who, as a member of a new branch of the royal house made Persepolis the capital of Persia proper, replacing Pasargadae, the burial place of Cyrus II (the Great). Built in a remote and mountainous region, Persepolis was an inconvenient royal residence, visited mainly in the spring. The effective administration of the Achaemenian realms were carried on from the imperial cities of Susa, Babylon, and Ecbatana. This accounts for the Greeks being unacquainted with Persepolis until Alexander the Great’s invasion of Asia. In 330 BCE, during the reign of Darius III, Alexander plundered the city and burned the palace of Xerxes, whose brutal campaign to invade Greece more than a century before had led, eventually, to Alexander’s conquest of the Persian empire. In 316 BCE Persepolis was still the capital of Persis as a province of the Macedonian empire. The city gradually declined under the Seleucid kingdom and after, its ruins attesting its ancient glory

Naghsh- e Rostam (Necropolis)

Naqsh-e Rustam is one of the most spectacular and awe-inspiring ancient sites of the Achaemenid Empire, consisting of the colossal tombs of Persian kings dating back to the first millennium BC.  It stands as a lasting memory of a once powerful empire that ruled over a significant portion of the ancient world. Naqsh-e Rustam is located approximately 5 km (3 miles) to the northwest of Persepolis, the capital of the former Achaemenid (Persian) Empire in the present day in Iran. Engraved on the facade of a mountain range considered sacred in the Elamite periods are the rock-cut tombs of Achaemenid rulers and their families dating to the 4 th and 5 th centuries BC, as well as richly decorated reliefs carved by the Sasanians in the 3 rd century AD.  In addition to being a royal necropolis, Naqsh-e Rustam became a major ceremonial center for the Sasanians until the 7 th century AD. The Naqsh-e Rustam site was already in use prior to the arrival of the Achaemenids, as evidenced in one pre-Achaemenid (possibly Elamite) relief and a number of old graves. Although this relief has been carved over by a Sasanian relief, a portrait of a man with a forward pointing hat and a long dress-like garment (clothing not typical of the Achaemenids and Sasanians) can still be discerned on the extreme right of the later relief. According to some sources, it was this figure that locals associated with the mythical hero of the Shahnameh (Kings Letter ) writings in the “book of the kings”, named Rustam, hence the name of the site. Most of the reliefs, however, date to the beginning of the Sasanian period.  In the 3 rd century AD, the Sasanians, a vassal of the Parthian Empire that succeeded in overthrowing its master, were a new power that rose in the East. In order to legitimize their rule, the Sasanians sought to associate themselves with the Achaemenid (Persian) Empire and regarded themselves as to its direct successors. One of the things they did to achieve this goal was to carve reliefs at Naqsh-e Rustam

Many carvings have remained here from the Sassanid Period. As the Sassanid (Second Persian Empire) were from the Achaemenid (First Persian Empire) bloodline, the stone carvings from their time are also concentrated in Pars Province in proximity to Persepolis. Ardeshir I established the Sassanid Dynasty and Empire and the carving of his coronation is one of the oldest carvings in Naghsh-e Rajab of Fars. This depicts Ardeshir I holding the crown of power in his right hand, which he has received from Ahura Mazda (the Supreme being in Zoroastrianism), while he is wearing a majestic crown on his head and pointing his index finger to the sky as a sign of respect. In the second carving, Shapur I is seen on his horse at his coronation ceremony. This is a masterpiece from the Sassanid Period and an amazing harmony and balance can be seen in the work. Sitting on his horse, Shapur takes the crown of power from Ahura Mazda while he is holding the sword in his left hand. The details of his face and hand have faded with the passage of time. The third carving also depicts Shapur I on his horse followed by nine 0of his courtiers. Last but not least, the fourth carving shows the Magi of all magis, Kartir, one of the most influential religious figures of the Sassanid Period under Shapur I, Bahram I, and Bahram II. He is holding his index finger upward as a sign of respect for the congregation of the Empire which is depicted separately on a carving behind him

The structure contains three domes, among other features, making it a bit larger and more magnificent than its predecessor the nearby castle of Ghaleh Dokhtar. However, it seems that the compound was designed to display the royalty image of Ardashir I, rather than being a fortified structure for defense purposes. That is why perhaps it would be best to refer to the structure as a "palace" rather than a "castle", even though it has huge walls on the perimeters (twice as thick as Ghaleh Dokhtar), and is a contained structure. From the architectural design, it seems the palace was more of a place of social gathering where guests would be introduced to the imperial throne

Ancient City of Bishapur

Between two ancient cities of Persepolis and Susa, linking two Sassanid (224-642 AD) capitals of Estakhr and Ctesiphon, founded or better saying rebuilt on an older city, Bishapur became a dazzling jewel of its era. The city is named after Shapur I (241-272 AD) as Bishapur by the size of 2.1 kilometers. The city has a square plan with two main streets crossing each other, and reaching the main gates, unlike other Iranian cities that have a circular plan. There are different assumptions about how the city was built; like being built by the captivated Roman soldiers or by Roman and Iranian architects and artists, but they are all based on the same facts. The city has a structure quite like the Roman cities of that time with the same micro mosaic decorations in the royal palace. Though it is popularly believed that King Shapur ordered building the city after his great victory over the Roam Emperor, Valerian, and captivating him along with his legion. As a result, it can be dated back to 260 AD. There is also an inscription over two 9 meter high columns in the city which shows year 24 after the reign of Shapur, so 264 or 266 AD as Shapur was assigned as King before his father’s death in 242. Bishapur is one of Iran’s ancient cities, located in Kazerun of Fars province. Bishapur is a treasury of precious Sassanid relics such as Anahita temple. The architecture style of this place was the Parthian style. Bishapur historical city was registered on September 16th, 1931 in the list of Iran’s national heritage with the registration number of 24. Bishapur recorded in UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITE in 2018 as one of the Sassanid Archaeological Landscape of Fars Region

Qashaqai Nomads

They chose to live free; they didn’t condemn themselves to houses made of brick and stones. Instead, they have the company of nature; they dance with the wind, drink from rivers. Their bed is meadows and their ceiling sky. They know how to tame nature, they are Qashqai Nomads. With more than one million populations, Qashqai is one of the largest tribes in Iran. Modern lifestyle of the 21st century caused a considerable proportion of them became citizens and villagers, but still many of its people live as nomads. As you may know, Iran has a variety of ethnic groups. Qashqai Nomads are mainly Turkish, and they live in the southwest provinces of the country, especially Fars. As their name indicates, they are always on the move during warm and cold seasons. In summers, when the weather gets hot, and it is difficult to live in their black tents, they departed to more moderate areas, and they call it Yaylak or Yeilagh (a countryside that has cool weather). On the other hand, when the climate gets cold, and it is hard for them to find forage for their livestock, they move to warmer parts of the country called Kishlak (Gheshlagh in Persian). The process of this temporary emigration is fascinating, reminding this popular notion “nothing lasts forever"

Qashqai Nomads have their very own cultural items. From different food to dialect. Qashqai nomads are happy and lively people. They use every opportunity to celebrate. You should consider yourself very lucky if you have a chance to see a Qashqai wedding. On this exceptional occasion, men and women wear traditional and colorful clothes that catch any eye. Then they make a large circle, grab a colorful handkerchief, and start Qashqai dance, of course, with Qashqai local music. Due to their long exposers to the sun, they usually have freckled skins, women and girls do not use any cosmetics, and you can differ a girl from a married woman by her hairstyle. Living in nature makes them fearless, energetic, and tough, but it doesn’t mean that they are not kind; actually, they have a golden heart. Qashqai nomads will welcome you to join them for lunch and dinner. They greet you with their organic and homemade foods, nothing like you’ve tasted before. Watching how they manage to adopt different methods to survive in the wild and how they live their daily life tasks surely is an unforgettable and fantastic experience for you.

The ancient world was the realm of great empires. Over 2500 years ago the Achaemenid Empire, also known as the first Persian empire ruled over a vast region spanning from Eastern Asia to Eastern Europe. Mighty Achaemenid kings, Cyrus and Darius the Great, extended the borders of the empire and built glorious capital cities. Pasargadae was the seat of Cyrus the Great where he ruled for many years and was ultimately buried. Persepolis was the capital of Persians under Darius the Great. Before being destroyed by Alexander’s vengeful army, Persepolis was the most opulent city in the world. The remains that still stand proud near the city of Shiraz attest to the city’s former glory. The brief introduction above is enough to know why Persepolis tours are the most popular historic sights tours in Iran.
