Photographer's Note
This beautiful Mausoleum dates back to the 11th century AH(Anno Hegirae) and is octagonal shaped with tall porticos and two storeyed arches and decorated with seven colored tiles and plaster moldings.
It is located in a large garden in the village of Ghadamgah and has been erected by Shah Soleiman in the year 1091 AH.
In this Mausoleum there is a stone tablet that bears the impression of the soles of two feet. It is said that these impressions belong to the feet of His Holiness Imam Reza (AS) 202 AH .
The dome of this structure has been decorated with white and turquoise colored diamond shaped figures which surround the dome. An inscription which is written by Al Abd Mohammad Hossein in Thulth script can also be noted.
The mausoleum is located in village of Ghadamgah almost 90 Km from mashad and 20-30 Km to Neyshabur.

Hello Mohammad,
what a beautiful building. The colorful ornamented tiles absorb all attention, so the red hat is neglected, sorry!

HI Mohammad,
I like this splendid architecture, so rich in colors and details !
I also appreciate that despite the cloudy weather it comes out so well, especilly the rich colors on the dome. Beautiful and nicely framed vertically.
Have a nice day,

Hi Mohammad,
Wonderful architecture with great patterns, colors and details. The sky also adds to the mood of this photo, but at the same time it takes some of the light. I will consider removing some shadows, and increasing contrast. Composition is superb, and also I like the human element here.
Best,
Alon

Hi Mohammad. I like these architectural shots showing these treasures from the past. The colorful dome of the roof is particularly beautiful but the classical hexagonal structure and arches are strong features. Really a picture to make me want to travel!
