Hāfezieh in Shiraz is last resting-place of Lisan al-Ghaib, one of the greatest poets and gnostic of Iran, and each part represents one or more concepts.Hafez Tomb and Hāfezieh Hall are two monuments which are on the northern margin of Shiraz city and south of the Quran Gate. Hāfezieh is the reminder of one of Iran’s greatest ode composer,Hafez Lisan al-Ghaib. All of us Iranians have a close relationship with Hafiz and his poems. Few can be found in Iran who did not augur to this great poet’s poetical works for encouragement or special occasions in life. Let’s go to his marble tomb, Hāfezieh in Shiraz, to find out more about it.Introducing Hāfezieh in Shiraz:The tomb of Hafiz and the Hāfizeh in general is designed by the French architect Andre Godar. Godar, for his love of Iran, has greatly contributed to our culture and history during his long years staying in this country. Hāfezieh in Shiraz was founded since 7 A.H. (1452 A.D.)  I.e. about sixty five years after Hafiz’s death. It has been restored and mended over and over in various governments until finally, by the command of Pahlavi and at the mighty hands of Andre Godar, has been become into its current form. It was then that an orchard and orangery were added to the southern part of Hafizeh.In the northern part of the tomb of Hāfez, there are 8 doors which harmonizes with 8 tomb columns. These doors symbolize the kingdom of heaven, and the pillars of the tomb are reagent of the century of Hāfiz’s advent to the earthly world. Some have also linked these eight doors to the doors of heaven.The dome-shaped construction of the tomb is aware of the sky, with turquoise blue, purple red, black and white and dark brown. If you look at the shape of the dome you will see that it looks very much like a Turkish dervish’s hat. To reach the grave of this great poet we have to climb a few steps to attain the marble left of Karim Khan Zand’s time. In addition to prophet Hāfez, the tomb of the Qavam and Moadel families   are also housed in the Hāfezieh complex.gopersegoperseMon, 02 Mar 2020 21:07:32 +0330
