Shah-e Cheragh shrine is one of the top three holy shrines and one important attraction to visit when in Shiraz. Sheh-e Cheragh literally means “King of light” is a title given to the older brother of Imam Reza the eight Shiite Muslim buried in Mashhad, Iran.

We recommend you to visit Shah-e Cheragh not only to get to know about Muslim’s pilgrimage visits and the way they appreciate their sacred personals but rather is the matter of the artwork and all the eye-catching arts and elements used in beautifying the shrine.
