On no account should you miss the fourteenth-century AD Masjid-e Amir Chakhmaq or Masjid-e Jom'eh' (an exact contemporary of the Masjid-e Jam'e) next to the bazaar portal, famous for its superb portal ornamented with stucco, and the traditional four-ivan structure on a courtyard a little too small for the ivans. Originally, it was called Masjid-e Now (New Mosque). The frieze on the portal has artistically very valuable calligraphy etched on it, according to which the mosque was built by the zealous efforts of Bibi Fatemeh Khatun, wife of Yazd governor Amir Jalal od-Din Chakhmaq. A marble mihrab has been installed, around which decorative tiles and verses of the Holy Koran have been etched over stone. The mosque is very near to the Takieh-ye Mir Chakhmaq, a 19th-century tiled edifice built to serve as a grandstand for the traditional passion play, or Ta'zieh, recording the martyrdom of the third Imam, Hossein, that is acted during the mourning month of Muharram (lunar) in the Takieh, or special theater used for these performances, of which it formed part. At present, the free space in proof the monument has been turned into the central square of the town, and has acquired anew appearance as a result of trees and flowers having been planted. Actually, this represents one of the buildings of a historic complex incorporating a mosque, a public bath, a caravansary, a mausoleum, a takieh. three water reservoirs, and an imposing entrance to one of Yazd's bazaars..
