Indeed Alexander the Great during his conquest of Persia passed in the region, but no reference to that. It is in fact a former Koranic school founded in the th century. Note the red limestone stone at the th century entrance before our era and the still apparent hunting scenes. In the centre, the grid overlooks the qanat accessible by an underground staircase. Significant temperature change once at the bottom. The ceramic workshop installed in the inner courtyard will not keep you: relatively poor production. On the other hand, take a look at the model of the old town, the white showing the elements now missing. A few steps away, after the beautiful square, join the th century mausoleum, a remarkable testimony of the buyide architecture before bursa. See, in particular, the Persian coufiques inscriptions to the glory of the twelve imams, drawing on the dome of the dome. Let us also remember the elegant stucco datant dating back to the same time.
