TABRIZ - Shahgoli

Shah-goli is the name of a large park in Tabriz. It was used as a summer palace during the Qadjar dynasty (when Tabriz was the official residence of Prince of Iran). It contains a palace that is surrounded by a great square water pool almost 12meters depth. During 2nd Pahlavi's it was reconstructed.

After the Iranian Revolution of 1979 the name of Shah-goli was changed to El-goli in official documents in but the name in common use continues to be Shahgoli.

    I like it in this environment! I was there in sumer, I guess its more fun in summer time but for a picture I think this is a great time!

    By the way I am very surprised to see an Iranian here, you need to tunnel .... no? I never could conect direct to fotocommunity.

    Very happy to see you here ... hope to see more of your work from Tabriz, a very nice place. The Bazzar is awsome!
