Ordu Bazaar

other

The Ordu Bazaar in Shiraz features vaulted brick ceilings that block the harsh desert sun, keeping the long, narrow passageways cool throughout the day. Built during the Safavid era, this marketplace served as a critical hub for nomadic tribes traveling through the Fars province to trade their woven carpets and dairy goods.
