The mosque and ivan of Gowhar Shad are stunning constructs and date back to the 15th century.
The shrine of Imam Reza and the historical complex attached to it, including the courtyards, porticos and porches, as well as its rich museum and library are worth a visit.
Other sights worth visiting are the tomb of the great poet Ferdowsi in Tous, 24 kilometers from Mashhad.
