Glitter!


Shah-E Charagh Mausoleum in Iran is known as the "Emerald Mosque". It may not appear too spectacular from the outside, but once inside, it glitters.  The interior is a massive mosaic of green shards of glass from floor to ceiling.  Some say it is the Emerald City of Oz.  It is the final resting place of Amir Ahmad and Mir MUhammad. These brothers were the sons of the 7th Imam and died in 835 AD.
