Shiraz Quran Gate 

Known as Darvazeh Quran, located at the entrance of the city of Shiraz, the beautifully built Darvazeh Quran, was the place where two huge Qurans, known as the Hefdah-man Quran were kept. All who entered or left the city had to pass through Darvazeh Quran, thus passing underneath the two Holy Quran. Most Muslims believe that if a man walks on the Holy Quran before he sets out in a trip, he will safely return home. The two Qurans are presently kept in the Pars Museum.
