Faq
Hafez’s ghazals (lyrical poems) capture the essence of Persian love, spirituality, and mysticism, making him one of the most quoted poets in Iran. Many Iranians consult his poetry for guidance through Fal-e-Hafez (poetic divination).
While Hafez focused on love and mysticism, Saadi was a philosopher-poet who wrote about ethics, morality, and human values. His works, Gulistan and Bustan, are still taught as guides for a righteous life.
Fal-e-Hafez is a fortune-telling tradition where you randomly open a book of Hafez’s poetry, and the first poem you see is interpreted as your fate. Yes, you can try it at Hafezieh!
Yes! Qur'an Gate is especially beautiful at sunset when the city lights turn on, offering a breathtaking view of Shiraz.
Yes, photography is allowed at all the sites.
Yes, the itinerary can be adjusted based on your preferences and interests.
