This is the shrine of Bibi Masooma, the sister of the Eighth Imam, who is buried in the city of Qom, which is also renowned as one of the gates to Paradise. This city is well-known for its stunning lightning and cultural treasures. When you go outdoors to visit the streets, you will notice many colourful lights and beauties which will attract every visitor.

CELEBRATING BIRTH ANNIVERSARIES AND CAPTURING BEAUTIFUL NIGHT PHOTOGRAPHS

This was our most recent visit with my family, and we began our journey on the occasion of birth anniversaries and school holidays. The journey is long, and it takes more than a day to reach the city of Qom. The journey began with 2D cars travelling to the border, which connects the routes to Zahidan which is the city of Iran connected with Pakistan.

After arriving in Zahidan, we purchased Fidak train tickets, which were pricey but also a five-star train. We travelled by train for almost 18 hours until we arrived in Qom. The wonderful thing about this city is that we have family there, so we don't need to reserve a hotel for the rest of our stay. It's also a money-saving arrangement for us because we already have relatives' homes which we dont need to pay the hotel rents.

In this post, I've included some memorable photographs of the bibi Masooma's shrine taken at night. That night was the birth anniversary of Bibi, the most well-known and respected Muslim woman. When there are important festivals like birth anniversaries in Iran, the entire shrine and the streets are decorated with colourful lights.

They display beautiful green, red, and white flags on the walls to show their appreciation for that person. That night, the same decoration was set up, with colourful lights strung from the shrine, creating a lovely sight. When I noticed this moment, it caught my interest and compelled me to take some stunning photographs of the shrine and its surrounding area.

COLORFUL LIGHTS AND BEAUTIFUL FLAGS

The first image is a stunning viewpoint of the Minars that has been zoomed in to highlight its beauty. The colourful lights that are decorated on the top of the Pillars are visible. The shrine as a whole is quite vast, with four entrances on all four sides. All four sides were illuminated with lights and colourful flags, which added to the beauty.

The second image shows the shrine's front side, which includes the main gate and the most populated courtyard. Visitors and pilgrims generally enter through this gate because it is connected to the main streets. The golden colour on the dome's spire and the colourful lights on the shrines' towers may be seen. This is a truly lovely views at night that was a special sight for the guests and the pilgrims.

There are some more photographs of the Haram shrine and its surrounds that I tried to capture with clearer images. We spent more than two hours inside and outside of the shrine that night and had a great time. These are the moments in a person's life that will be remembered forever. We must respect these times and enjoy every minute.

This is my attempt to provide you with the best pictures and to convey the cultural movements of the Iranian people. I hope you like the photography and the reading as well. If you enjoyed the post, please leave a comment so that the next one will be even more fantastic. Thank you for sticking with me until the end.
