Masjed-i Agha Bozorg Mosque (Kashan - كاشان Iran / ایران ) Kashan (en persan : كاشان) est une ville d'Iran située entre (More) Kashan (en persan : كاشان) est une ville d'Iran située entre Téhéran et Ispahan.
Elle fut renommée au Moyen Âge pour ses ateliers de céramique. En effet, le nom de la ville trouve son origine dans le nom persan désignant le carreau de céramique, kashi. Kashan est la première des larges oasis le long de la route entre Qom et Kerman le long des déserts dans le centre de l'Iran. Son charme est donc principalement dû au contraste entre les immensités des déserts et la verdure des oasis bien entretenues.
Le sultan Malik Shah Ier de la dynastie seldjoukide y fit construire une forteresse au XIe siècle. Les murs de cette dernière sont encore visibles aujourd'hui au centre de la ville.
Le célèbre jardin Bagh-e Fin, où le chancellier de Nasseredin Shah, Amir Kabir fut assassiné en 1852 se trouve à Kashan.
L'astronome al-Kachi qui travailla avec le prince-astronome Oulough Beg à Samarcande au XIVe siècle était originaire de cette ville.
Kashan a subi un tremblement de terre en 1778.
Kashan is a city in the province of Isfahan, Iran. It had an estimated population of 272,359 in 2005 [1].
The etymology of the city name comes from the Persian word Kashi, which translates into the English word tile. Kashan is the first of the large oases along the Qom-Kerman road which runs along the edge of the central deserts of Iran. Its charm is thus mainly due to the contrast between the parched immensities of the deserts and the greenery of the well-tended oasis.
Archeological discoveries in the Sialk Hillocks which lie 2.5 miles (4 km) west of Kashan reveal that this region was one of the primary centers of civilization in pre-historic ages. Hence Kashan dates back to the Elamite period of Iran. The Sialk ziggurat still stands today in the suburbs of Kashan after 7000 years. The three wise men who followed the star that guided them to Bethlehem to witness the nativity of Jesus, as recounted in the Bible, reportedly came from Kashan. (Some sources however claim their origin to be elsewhere)
Sultan Malik Shah I of the Seljukian dynasty ordered the building of a fortress in the middle of Kashan in the 11th century. The fortress walls, called Ghal'eh Jalali still stand today in central Kashan.
Kashan was also a leisure vacation spot for Safavi Kings. Bagh-e Fin (Fin Garden), specifically, is one of the most famous gardens of Iran. This beautiful garden with its pool and orchards was designed for Shah Abbas I as a classical Persian vision of paradise. The original Safavid buildings have been substantially replaced and rebuilt by the Qajar dynasty although the layout of trees and marble basins is close to the original. The garden itself however, was first founded 7000 years ago alongside the Cheshmeh-ye-Soleiman. The garden is also notorious as the sight of the murder of Mirza Taghi Khan known as Amir Kabir, chancellor of Nasser-al-Din Shah, Iran's King in 1852.
The earthquake of 1778 leveled the city of Kashan and all the edifices of Shah Abbas Safavi, leaving 8000 casualties. But the city started afresh however, and has today become a focal tourist attraction via the numerous large houses from the 18th and 19th centuries, illustrating the finest examples of Qajari aesthetics.
