Hafez Tomb; where the love flows

In 1452, 65 years after the death of Hafez, Timurian governor of Shiraz, ordered the construction of a small basement with a large basin in front of it near the grave.

At that time, this place was one of the cemeteries and Golardasht garden in Shiraz, which has been mentioned several times in the poems of Hafez. The main land in which the tomb of Hafez Shrine is located is more than two hectares.

After that, this tomb was rebuilt twice during the Safavid and Afshar times; once ordered by Shah Abbas and several years later on the orders of Nader Shah Afshar.
