Jamé Mosque of Isfahan

Jame Mosque is a historical mosque in Isfahan, Iran. It was constructed and renovated around 771 to the end of the 20th century. This mosque is different because of its four-iwan architectural style; four gates are placed face to face. It has two brick domed chambers. The south dome was built by Nizam al-Mulk in 1086-87 and his rival Taj al-Mulk built the north dome a year later.
