Looks very much like the Apadana motif of Persepolis……look at the blocked up badgirs in the background and totally zoro motifs city feel. The floral murals and room interiors have been redone in Safavi style, but those square very art deco type badgir/ towers are totally zoro.

Correct. The structure is pre Islamic. Not the motifs.

Only museum dedicated to Zoroastrian history in the world. A massive complex of unique buildings in the city of Yazd:

I just had parsi friends come back from visiting this and they were mesmerized.

Yazd is becoming the last city the Zoroastrians can actually call home.

If you notice, all of these are in sand colored stone.

The one you originally posted was pink and had emerald and other colors and motifs.

A lot of glass work too.

Not Zoroastrian.

Homi and Geve bhai told me it was just fukking a surreal experience and they were surprised just how huge the complex is. And buildings properly spaced out and the architecture kept consistent and new additions made over several centuries.

First time they felt like the actually got a country of their own! The Irani zoros have built it up painstakingly and it’s a very cool art deco sorta place like the Smithsonian or the Louvre kinda feel.

Nope. Elongated. The style normally used in buildings. And flags.
