Masjid-e-Jameh Atiq / مسجد جامع عتيق قز

Qazvin / قزوین‎

The Jameh Atiq mosque is one of the oldest mosques in Iran: the oldest part of the mosque is said to have been constructed by the orders of Harun al-Rashid in 807CE. Later additions were made, the last being during the late Safavid era (1501-1722 AD).

The guys in the picture are architect students who come and copy the tiling of this mosque for their studies.
