The tomb of Sa'di of Shiraz will scent of love Even a thousand years after his death.
This line of poetry by Sa'di, inscribed on the gate leading into the garden surrounding the mausoleum, welcomes all those who enter to pay homage to this unparalleled master of the Persian language and literature.
Even from the very early days after the
poet's death, the mausoleum of Sa'di became a place of pilgrimage to lovers of poetry and literature.

In 1808 AD Karim Khan Zand renovated the mausoleum.
His tomb, in the northeast of the city, is as overpowering as that of Hafez is congenially intimate. Tombs of both poets were rebuilt in early '50s. Sa'di's mausoleum stands on the spot that was once the poet's convent. Though modern in its simplicity, the portico or talar with its tall columns of pinkish marble is a traditional feature of Persian architecture. Steps lead up to the tomb with its turquoise-blue dome. A short double colonnade to the left leads to a tiled sunken enclosure containing a pool filled with voracious fish.

Shah-e Cheragh Shrine

Seyed Amir Ahmad, known as Shah-e Cheragh, the brother of Imam Reza, came to Shiraz in the latter half of the 8th century. He died in the city and his tomb is now a venerated place of pilgrimage.
The structure, of tile work and the dome of the mausoleum have been rebuilt a number of times over the centuries. The tomb, the beautiful silver doors and the exquisite mirror work of the sanctuary are the works of the 19th century Shirazi masters and contemporary artists. The simple ivan to the east of the sanctuary adds to .the overall beauty of the structure.
