Tabriz hosts Quran reading sessions

Tabriz, like the other Iranian cities, hosts Quran reading sessions, as one of Muslims’ main activities during the day, in the holy month of Ramadan.

A large number of worshippers attend Quran reading sessions in the grand Mosalla (prayer hall) of Tabriz every day.

Tabriz, the fourth largest city of Iran and capital of East Azarbaijan Province, lies in a valley surrounded by hills on three sides.

The landmark Iranian city hosts many historical monuments, representing Iran’s architectural transition throughout its deep history.

The Blue Mosque, or Masjed-e Kaboud, the Ark, and the remains of the 12-sided tomb of Mahmoud Ghazan are among the most notable ancient buildings of the city.

Most of Tabriz's preserved historical sites belong to Ilkhanid, Safavid and Qajar and its grand Bazaar has been inscribed as a World Heritage Site in 2010.

From the early modern era, Tabriz has been fundamental in the development, movement and economy of three neighboring regions; namely the Caucasus, Eastern Anatolia and Central Iran.

From the 19th century, it became one of the most important cities of Iran in some fields.
