Iranian art and architecture is the result of more than 5000 years of history, spreading over the whole region and influenced by Islamic art.

Between the 15th and 17th century, Persian architecture has reached its pinnacle, to become, as the renowned historian and archaeologist Arthur Pope said, “The supreme Iranian art”.

From the conception to the embellishment, it shows a genius which has given “some of the most majestic structures the world has ever seen”.

From Persepolis to the Shah Mosque, Persian architecture displays a great variety, which demonstrates its rich culture.
