We were introduced by our local Iran local guide to visit this shop. We were amazed by their miniature drawings and have decided to order drawings of our 5 cats. We have limited staying time in Ishafan and the owner (and his family) was able to complete all 3 drawings within a day. After we left Isfahan, we decided to order another one for our 5th cat ((who has passed away to Rainbow Bridge already). The owner himself finished it in a day and drove to deliver it on hand while we were on the way to other city. Very good customer service and very beautiful drawings . Will recommend to all tourists to visit, and you won't regret to get at least one back home. Best Regards Steven

Naqsh-e Jahan Square

Reviewed By DominicDeBurca - Dunmore East, Ireland

Definitely one of the highlights of my entire Iranian itinerary. Just loved this place and the wonderful atmosphere (particularly at night) when a lot of local families come to socialize and have outdoor picnics or take a ride around the square in one of the many horse-drawn carriages.

Aun Art House

Art and Culture are both living objects, they express the atmosphere of a society. Iran has a rich history and this has a strong influence on persian art. Here at Aun Art House we gathered a delightful selection of handmade Artworks from all over Iran in order to support the young artists. All these handicrafts are unique and made with love. They could be a perfect gift for your loved ones or a special souvenir from Iran!

Khaju Bridge

Reviewed By Taffoolie - Paris, France

This is again another amazing architecture gem in Isfahan , both day and night this place is amazing. At night time you have the singers coming singing under the bridge.the bridge from one side does a barrage for the water and from the other side it is a beautiful sound of water going to the river. So peaceful so beautiful.

This bridge is clearly a great favourite with locals, many of whom congregate there to take photos, meet, have picnics and cool down by wading in the shallow waters.

Reviewed By iolandaa21 - Lisbon, Portugal

It is really worth visiting this Minuature Art gallery and workshop. Apart from the camel bone miniature commonly found in similar galleries, one can also buy rather small artisitc pieces adapted to silver filligree jewellery. I strongly suggest you stop by (if not to buy at least to watch the young artisans learning how to achieve mastery in this Art).
