Blue Mosque of Tabriz

Iran is full of impressive mosques, but the Blue Mosque of Tabriz is one of the most important and historical, standing out as a rare beauty with its intricate blue tile mosaics.

According to the calligraphy inscribed on the front of the Blue Mosque, the story of the site dates back to the year 1465 during the Persian Empire. During this period, the mosque was one of the most famous buildings of its time.

Gazing at the majestic entrance, you will first notice the fragmented mosaic with chunks of turquoise tiles missing. This paints a picture of a country that has struggled with earthquakes throughout history, including the devastating earthquake in 1779 that marred the beauty of the Blue Mosque.

Inside the mosque, the walls are filled with more of the breathtaking turquoise mosaic. Viewing the intricacies of the tile and Islamic calligraphy up close will tell the story of why the tiling of the Blue Mosque took 25 years to complete.
