Emamzadeh Abolfazl

The holy shrine of the Abalfazl which is called "Emamzadeh Abolfazl"
It's a holy place that many people for the sake of Allah
go there and visit his holy shrine.
He is among the descendents of seventh Imam of Shi'a (Imam Musa al-kazdim).
He was martyred for the sake of Allah and to spread the religion
of "Total Submission to God's Will" (Islam).
The place has a very simple not luxtiory decorated
and for this it has inspiration inside and that's why many people
like to visit there regularly and stay there for a while.

These are the outer wall and you can see it's as simple as it is.

This is the inside and you may see the claty-made dome on the top of the shrine.
Inside there are many trees which could be seen in the previous picture.


And here it is.
The inside of his shrine,
where no worldly decoration can be found.
Here some people sit for a while and pray to Allah
and ask this pious descendent of their Imam
to pray for them too.

And here is my brother comes in and joins us
and provides all of us with these treasures.
And also special thanks to his friends!

The first actually is this weblog logo.
But no one can imagine this green treasure
in the middle of those golden deserts.

And off course you remember the method for growing citrous fruits under
hot sunshine and in the dry weather.
Don't?
Let me give you a hint.
Refer to the first picture.
Do you see any tree?

And the answer is here!
They use palm trees as a shelter for the other trees.
Find example of this intelligence in other places.


This is special gift for those who haven’t seen the beginning of production process of a palm tree.About 6 month later come back and see the honey-tasted dates instead. "If you be patient, I'll make you honey from sour grapes !", a Persian proverb says.

A way in the middle of the garden.
See the soil!
You can guess the hot and dry weather.

I appreciate the kind person who offered me these beautiful pics
from many beautiful places in Jahrom
Mr. Hamed Torabi Jahromi and his beautiful pictures

"Sangeshkan" CaveOne of biggest man made caves in the whole world.
Believe meYou should be there to imagine.

I said, It is a huge cave. Believe !

And what if you were in the shoes of those who carved the Cave
Only for earning living.

Wasn't it hard to carve?
Only a man can carve it out of a mountains that is stronger than them.
In heart and thinking,
Only the people of Jahrom




"Ghadamgah"A temple from the long history before Islam




"Gadak" another beauty placed in Jahrom mountains

The same place.And just imagine the snow in that hot place on the Earth.

Picking the date fruits from its tree.

One of the couple of trees in our home
and one of the last days of the autumn.

Which yearly opens its generous hands
and provides us with some VERY sweet dates.


But the process is so complicated that not a
normal person can do take care of the tree.


So, to make it fertilized, taken care of and pick the fruits,
a skillful person is always hired.


They climb up the tree, using a lasso made up of the tree's leaves.


The chair for the person to sit on that height and to be comfortable enough to think about the trees' best interest, is also the tree's branches


Then put a bunch of the dates in a bag which is weaved using the tree's leaves.




And it finds its way down to the ground through a leaf.


And you see here the last moment of falling the bag from the leaf path.


And the skilled person holds it from falling quickly.
There is always a risk of falling and I heard some people fell from the tree and ... :-(


And as you can see, there is no dates left on tree.


They put all the dates on the a carpet which is also woven by the trees' leaves.
I wonder how come every thing is made up of the tree.
In ancient times, the houses were used to be build by the body.



And the remaining parts are usually used to
make a fire, if there is not other application for them
like making hats and sweep and so on and so forth.

Thanks to my brother
Abolfazl for nice and smart photos
