PESO:

We went to the night services at the Ali Ibn Hamza Holy Shrine in Shiraz.
There are separate entrances and sections for men and women but I was
allowed to go in both and take all of the photos I wanted.  I did have to
wear a chador which I finally tied under my chin because I couldn't hold it
on and take pictures, too!  This was quite a challenge because the interior
is covered with thousands of tiny mirrors which reflected all of the
different lights and carpets.  The actual tomb is accessible from both the
men's and women's sections and people were quite emotional praying at the
tomb.

And all the way to the end.  Hit "Less Info" for a bigger photo.

C&C greatly appreciated.  I'm getting closer to the end of the trip.
Persepolis still to go - and others ;-)
