Images of Shiraz

Look out for:

Bagh-i Eram

Eram Garden - named for one of the four gardens of Paradise described in the Quran. Shah Muhammed Pahlavi confiscated it in 1953 from its Qashqai owner. It's now a botanical garden belonging to the university. You'll see students studying painting and photography. The tiles on the building show Khusrau II's meeting with Shirin as descibed in the Shahnameh.
