Eram Garden, Shiraz, Iran.
The Eram Garden is one of the most beautiful and monumental gardens of Iran. Apparently, its history goes back to the period of the Saljuq Dynasty (A.D.1038-1194). Since its construction and until the late 18th century, it was predominantly used by the local rulers and Persian monarchs. At the end of the Zand Dynasty (A.D.1750-1794), the Qashqaie tribal chieftains tookover the garden and the one of them called Jani Khan and his son constructed a building within it. At the time of Nasir ud-Din Shah Qajar (A.D.1848-1896), a Shirazi nobleman, Haj Nassir ul-Mulk, bought the garden from the Qashqaie overlords and constructed the present charming building. After passing through a chain of owners, the garden was finally handed over to shiraz University in 1963. It is now being used as a botanical garden by plant science researchers and general public.
The main building of the garden consists of three stories. In the basement one can see a beautiful small pond while on the second floor, at the center of the building is a large porch with two high standing pillars.

Shiraz (Iran 1974)
Shiraz ist eine regsame Provinzhauptstadt, deren Einwohnerzahl bei 300.000 liegt (1974), sie ist aber auch die Stadt der Rosen und der Nachtigallen, und der Dichter Saadi und Hafiz. Während der Safawidenzeit stand Shiraz im Schatten Isfahans, doch die nachfolgende Zand-Dynastie verlegte 1750 ihre Residenz hierher, und man bemühte sich, die Stadt ebenso schön zu machen wie Isfahan.
In der belebten Innenstadt grüsst Hafiz von seinem Denkmal, und, inmitten eines gepflegten Parks mit vielen Rosen am Stadtrand befindet sich das Mausoleum des noch heute hoch verehrten Dichters. Hafiz lebte von 1326 bis 1390 in Shiraz, und Goethe wurde durch seine Verse zu seinem „West-Östlichen Diwan angeregt.
Die wuchtige Zitadelle von Shiraz entstand im 18. Jh. unter ihrem Stadthalter Karim Khan Zand.
Die Baumeister des Kharim Khan Zand waren auch verantwortlich für die Errichtung der Vakil-Moschee. An den Seiten ihres Portals finden sich auf hellem Grund Darstellungen der Rosen von Shiraz.
Das Mausoleum von Schah Cheragh, von 1834, besitzt als Besonderheit eine birnenförmige Kuppel.

Shah-e-Cheragh Mausoleum:
The most important pilgrimage centre of the city of Shiraz is the Mausoleum of Mir Sayyed Ahmad, the son of the seventh Emam known as Shah-e-Cheragh (the Shrine of the lord of the light), which is situated near the Masjed-e-No. Mir Sayyed Ahmad came to Ahiraz at the beginning of the third Islamic century, and died there. After the shrines of Imam Reza in Mashhad and Fatima in Qum, the third most venerated pilgrimage destination in Iran is the shrine of Shah Cherag in the city of Shiraz.
Archaeological excavation indicates a settlement on the site of Shiraz in the prehistoric period and cuneiform records from the great ceremonial capital of Persepolis, 57 kilometers to the north, show that it was a significant town in Achaemenian times. As a city however, it was founded in 684 AD, after the Arab armies conquered the Sassanians. The Buyids (945-1055 AD) made Shiraz their Active Imagecapital, building mosques, palaces and a great city wall. The 13th and 14th centuries saw Shiraz as a literary center especially famous for its poets Sa'adi and Hafez, both of whom are buried in the city. There are many splendid Islamic monuments in Shiraz, especially its enormous Safavid mosque, but the most notable religious site is the shrine of Syed Amir Ahmad (also called Ahmad ibn Musa).
Amir Ahmad and his brother Mir Muhammad, both of whom were brothers of Imam Reza, took refuge in Shiraz following Abbasid persecution of the Shi'ite sect (Amir Ahmad died or was murdered in 835). The brothers' tombs, originally only simple mausoleums, became celebrated pilgrimage destinations in the 14th century when the pious and art-loving Queen Tashi Khatun erected a mosque and theological school by the tombs. Known locally as Shah Cherag or the 'King of Light', the exquisite tomb of Amir Ahmad is a place of truly stunning beauty. The enormous dome above the shrine is inlaid with hundreds of thousands of pieces of finely crafted tile and the interior walls are likewise covered with myriad pieces of dazzling cut glass intermixed with multi-colored tiles. In the same complex is the mausoleum of Mir Muhammad.

The Iranians' love of constructing gardens has its roots in the ancient Zoroastrianism tradition, which emphasises the sacredness of water and art.
The country's most famous example is the Eram Botanical Garden in Shiraz.
STORYLINE:
Built during the Saljuq dynasty (A.D.1038-1194) in the city of Shiraz, the 11-hectare Eram Garden is the most well known among the nine UNESCO-registered gardens of Iran.
The beautiful three-story building in the centre of the garden is not as old as the garden itself.
It was designed by the then famous architect named Haj Mohammad Hassan during the reign of Naser al-Din Shah Qajar, (1848-96). It has been through several renovations since its construction and is currently being renovated again and will open as a museum of Iranian art next year.
The garden is run by the Shiraz Medical University. Hamid Reza Sattari is the director.
He says: This is Eram garden in Shiraz, which is around 900 years old. It has been noted for its almost intact structure in terms of architecture, and has been registered by UNESCO as a typical model of Iranian gardens.
