Bāgh-e Eram
The Bāgh-e Eram or Eram Garden ( Persian باغ ارم, 'Paradise Garden') is a botanical garden in Shiraz, Iran . The Eram Garden is one of the most famous gardens in the city because of its beauty, size and age.
The history of the Eram Garden goes back to the Seljuks (1038–1194). Jani Chān, a member of the Kashgai tribe , built a building in the garden during the Zand Dynasty . The garden was then sold to Naser al Molk . The pavilion, which still exists in its present form, was designed and built by Mohammad Hassan, an architect commissioned by al-Molk. Originally built for princes and kings, it is now used as a botanical garden for the University of Shiraz , as well as a place of interest and recreation for visitors. The building is not accessible to visitors. The entire garden is part of the “Reconstruction and restoration of the Eram Garden” project at the University of Shiraz.
