Shiraz's Shah Cheragh Shrine is an amazing place to visit, as it gives a good example of what Holy Shrines look like in Iran.Written April 2, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews. - Mohammad DezfulianDezful, Iran38 contributionsVakil Bazaar is also a treasure trove for those seeking authentic Persian goods. From luxurious silks and brocades to traditional handicrafts and fine jewelry, the variety and quality of items available are impressive. The bazaar is particularly renowned for its selection of Persian carpets, which are considered among the finest in the world. Even if you're not in the market to buy, simply browsing these exquisite pieces is a treat in itself.
The bazaar is also home to the Vakil Bathhouse and Vakil Mosque, both of which are architectural gems worth exploring. The bathhouse, with its intricate tile work and serene ambiance, offers a glimpse into the traditional public baths that were once a central part of Persian social life. The mosque, with its grand courtyard and stunning prayer hall, provides a peaceful retreat from the bustling market.
One of the highlights of visiting Vakil Bazaar is the chance to savor the local cuisine. The nearby Vakil Caravanserai, now a teahouse, offers a perfect spot to rest and enjoy a cup of Persian tea or a traditional meal. The flavors of Shiraz are reflected in the food, with dishes that are rich, aromatic, and full of history.
Vakil Bazaar is more than just a place to shop; it is a living museum of Persian culture. Each visit offers something new, whether it’s discovering a hidden alley, finding a rare item, or simply soaking in the timeless ambiance of the market. For those who appreciate history, craftsmanship, and the vibrant life of a traditional bazaar, Vakil Bazaar is an experience not to be missed.Written August 13, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
