مسجد شیخ لطف الله‎ Masjed-e Sheikh Lotf-ollāh

مسجد شیخ لطف الله‎ Masjed-e Sheikh Lotf-ollāh
Happy november week ALL:)
********************************
Sheikh Lutfollah Mosque (Persian: مسجد شیخ لطف الله‎ Masjed-e Sheikh Lotf-ollāh) is one of the architectural masterpieces of Safavid Iranian architecture, standing on the eastern side of Naghsh-i Jahan Square, Isfahan, Iran.

Construction of the mosque started in 1603 and was finished in 1619. It was built by the chief architect Shaykh Bahai, during the reigh of Shah Abbas I of the Safavid dynasty.

It is registered, along with the Naghsh-i Jahan Square, as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.


The purpose of this mosque was for it to be a private mosque of the royal court, unlike the Masjed-e Shah, which was meant for the public.[2] For this reason, the mosque does not have any minarets and is of a smaller size.
