​Nasir Ol-Molk Mosque, also known as the Pink Mosque, is a traditional mosque with extensive colored glass in its facade, and displays other traditional elements such as the Panj Kāse ("five concaved") design. It is named in popular culture as the Pink Mosque, due to the usage of considerable pink color tiles for its interior design. ​Narenjestan Museum is a part of Ghavam complex and was designed and used as birooni (to receive people out of family circle). The complex built between 1879-1886 was the domicile of Governor's Court of Fars during Qajar period. The complex is significant representation of Iranian architecture during Qajar period. Shāh Chérāgh is a funerary monument and mosque housing the tomb of the brothers Ahmad and Muhammad, sons of Mūsā al-Kādhim and brothers of ‘Alī ar-Ridhā. The two took refuge in the city during the Abbasid persecution of Shia Muslims.
