Go to the Jama Mosque near the hotel, a landmark building in Yazd, and whenever we lose our way in the alleys of the old town, we always determine the orientation according to its minaret. Jama Mosque is also known as the Juli Mosque, also known as the Friday Mosque. In the Muslim world, Friday is the Day of the Jubilee, so all the Jubilee mosques are also known as Friday mosques. This typical Iranian Anzali-style building was built in the 12th century and was renovated in the 14th and 19th centuries. The mosque’s two minarets are also said to be Iran’s tallest minaret, so it was able to appear on the back of the 200 riyal note. Unfortunately, the minimum denomination in Iran is 5,000 riyal, so the 200 riyal note is out of print. After buying 150,000 lire tickets per person, I entered the mosque. I didn't expect this magnificent mosque. In addition to the large area, the mess in the main hall really makes people believe that this is a famous mosque. Take off your shoes and enter the carpeted main hall of the mosque, view the tall dome, and see the beautiful murals inside and outside the main hall. The mosque is gorgeous and there is really nothing to look at inside. Several Western tourists also looked nothing good, simply sitting on the carpet, taking pictures with simple tiles as the background. The courtyard of the mosque is rectangular, and the long corridor next to it is quite distinctive. There was also a prayer hall in the corridor, because the door was opened by locals, so we took the opportunity to enter and watch.
There is a very high minaret, blue-keyed building, there are lights at night, very beautiful, I saw that some people said that foreigners want tickets, but when I went, I didn’t receive tickets. Someone at the door provided free hijab. I have to wear it or respect the religious habits of other ethnic groups. Outside, we went after night, the day was too hot... 2023/6 went
a place you can go day and night. the scenery is more beautiful on the rooftop of the restaurants.go, eat, shop, take pictures and have peaceful moments...
Very beautiful, especially mosaic tiles, there is Iran's tallest minaret, the main entrance tiles are very beautiful.
