Stepping into the Holy Shrine of Shahecheragh is an invitation to inner peace and a journey into the heart of spiritual beauty. The mirror-work, the dazzling architecture and the echoes of devotion create a sacred space that transcends the ordinary world.

To preserve the dignity and tranquility of this space and to ensure the harmony of every pilgrim’s journey, please observe these specific guidelines:

1. Upon your arrival at the entrance gates, a brief and respectful check is conducted—a necessary step to uphold the sacredness and serene atmosphere of this holy place.

2. We ask our visitors to refrain from bringing items that are incompatible with this sacred environment, such as professional cameras, laptops, sharp objects, lighters and electronic smoking devices.

3. For our cherished international guests, a dedicated member of our International Relations department will accompany you throughout your visit. This accompaniment is to ensure that you are warmly welcomed and guided and to offer you a deeper connection to the history and spiritual significance of this holy site.

4. While you are welcome to capture the beauty of the architecture and your personal moments here, please note that filming is restricted in certain designated areas to preserve the sanctity of private prayers.

We look forward to welcoming you into this haven of light.
