The above mentioned is located at a distance of 10 km. from Qazvin, and to the left of the Qazvin -Takestan Road. It is a remnant of the Qajar period. This structure is on a rectangular basis, but has four false arches in each corner. Thus rendering it an appearance of an octagon. Its entrance is to the northern side.
One of the attractive characteristics of the structure is its four rectangular yards, at midst each of which are two brick square columns, running alongside the walls behind the chambers. On these columns, in all four directions are arches, and the ceiling is supported by these. The ceilings of all the chambers of this structure are domed shaped. |
