Only one part of the building in and around Alexandria prison has been preserved and the rest has been damaged. The dome is made of mud brick and is divided into two floors, decorated in blue and gold. The dome is a precious heritage of Mongol architecture and inspired many Persian architects after it. Several rooms in Alexandria prison have now been converted into small shops selling handmade bronze sculptures.

It has been a thousand years of history, and it was once a cemetery for a certain prince. It is impossible to verify who it is. Now the main part is displayed as a museum with some local cultural relics, and the rest of the prison rooms are basically changed to souvenir sales points.
Alexander prison, also known as Zia'ieh school, was built in the 15th century and finally completed in 705 years in Iran. There is also a saying that the deep well in the center of the yard was a dungeon built by Alexander the Great when he invaded Persia. The roof decoration has basically been peeled off, Although the roofs are not as exquisite as those decorated with mosaics, there is another kind of mulberry beauty~ There is a not-deep dungeon underground, which has now been changed to a tea room. Unfortunately, it is not open during Ramadan~ Although I did not drink black tea, the tea room wall posted Yazd's scenery photos, It’s not bad to enjoy it~ The small rooms around have been changed to souvenir shops. I like the decoration at this door very much.

It is now equivalent to a folk craft museum with a full range of categories, and there is no half cent relationship with the prison; 3. If you just lack the understanding of Iranian art, and especially want to have a comprehensive inspection, even consider buying some souvenirs, this is exactly a place worth reference; 4. Tickets 150,000, about 1.5 US dollars (to be honest, this price is a bit high, the price is poor).
