Aminiha Historical House

I had not seen such wonderful place.full of colorful windows , luxurious architecture and a precious ceremonial and religious collection pertain to Ashura in the basement. it is worth mentioning that you might get lost in the maze-like isles of that fantastic 2800 square meters basement!

Hosseinieh is not a mosque. It's somewhere that moslems mourning for Imam Hossein. Hosseinieh Aminiha built in 1858 and allocated to mourning for Imam Hossein by a merchant called, Haj Mohammed Reza Amini.

One of best home that I have ever seen.
Beautiful and historical home with especial design.

There's a story behind this beautiful and historical house which is worth visiting this site. Also, you can see the extraordinary architect of the house. For example, it has a big colorful wall with mirrors which is used to be a clock usable for all around the year with using of the sun light.

Very beautiful, near the mosque.
