City of Hafez and Saadi
Shiraz
Gardens, poetry and the gateway to Persepolis and Pasargadae.
Shiraz is known as the city of poets, gardens and literature. The tombs of Hafez and Saadi draw visitors who come to read their verses where they rest.
The Nasir al-Molk Mosque, with its coloured glass, and the Eram Garden, part of the UNESCO-listed Persian Garden, are highlights. Persepolis and Pasargadae are within easy reach.
