The Royal Mosque of Isfahan

The Royal Mosque of Isfahan
In 1598, King Abbas decided to make Isfahan his capital and planned a huge urban project. The Royal Mosque is at once a place of prayer, a garden in the middle of the desert and a way of writing down the texts of the faith. It is also a school and a place of public hygiene. It embodies the unprecedented richness of an art of living, the power of a king and the talent of hundreds of craftsmen and artists.
