Exploring Iran’s Most Iconic Square

If you ever visit Isfahan, there’s one place you absolutely can’t miss: Naqsh-e Jahan Square. Naqsh-e Jahan Square, located in the heart of Isfahan, is over 400 years old and was built during the Safavid era by Shah Abbas the Great. It’s not just a square — it’s a whole story of politics, culture, and history. From the stunning Ali Qapu Palace on the west side, the beautiful Shah Mosque on the south, to the magnificent Sheikh Lotfollah Mosque on the east, Naqsh-e Jahan is filled with architectural wonders. The square also connects to the Grand Bazaar of Isfahan, through the iconic Qeysarieh Gate. What makes this square truly unique is that it’s still alive with local life, art, and culture. It’s a UNESCO World Heritage site and the beating heart of Isfahan.
