Murals at the Shrine of Emam Reza
North Africa/Middle East picture - In the name of God the most merciful and compassionate. The Calligraphy in the center of the beautiful Persian floral patterns and verses from the Holy Quran on the murals of the Imam Reza Shrine in the city of Mashad, Iran, reads "Allah" meaning "God", which also decorates the center of the tricolor, green, white, and red Iranian flag. I thought it would be suitable to start this collection of pictures with this beautiful display of praise for God - After all, He is the beginning of all that is. Enjoy your trip through amazing Iran.
