We visited Shah Mosque on the south side of Naqsh-e Jahan Square in Isfahan.

The Imam Mosque was the official name after the Islamic Revolution in Iran in 1979. People still often call it the Shah Mosque or the Abbas Grand Mosque. It was built in 1611 by Abbas I of the Safavid dynasty.

After the Shah Mosque was built, it replaced the Jumrah Mosque for Friday prayers. Although the south side of Naqsh-e Jahan Square is not aligned with Mecca, the designer of the mosque designed iwan on the north side so that people’s prayers can face Mecca, and the north side of iwan can also be seen from the square. The top of the Wan and the dome of the main hall.

Nowadays, the Shah Mosque is only used for tourists.
