  • Summary

  • Journey with Global Treasures to Meidan Emam, one of the world's largest public squares, located in the heart of Isfahan, Iran. Built in the early 17th century, this "Image of the World" showcases the pinnacle of Islamic architecture through its four magnificent monuments: the ethereal Sheikh Lotfollah Mosque, the commanding Royal Mosque, the six-story Ali Qapu Palace, and the grand portal to Isfahan's ancient bazaar. Discover how this remarkable UNESCO World Heritage site served as the beating heart of the Safavid Empire, where royal ceremonies and bustling markets coexisted in perfect harmony, and where four centuries later, history still lives and breathes in every intricate tile and soaring arch.
