There is no shrine for great king, so simple tombstone. But the grave is in a other person holy shrine.
the tomb of King Abbas the great who was the greatest king in Safavid time. taking back all the islands of Persian gulf conquered by Portuguese. making Iranians as an one-allied-nation. throwing Osmanian (old Turkish) out of Iran. having a country with a variety of religions and full of peace n quiet where many tourist could have come. and only there is a poor stone grave for this King in a mosque that people go there more to pray than visit him :(
Now the tomb is in the mausoleum for someone else (Habib Ibne Mousa). Now I don't know which existed there first but apparently when he passed away in Mazandaran they were taking the body to bury him in Isfahan but buried him in Kashan instead. Still whether it was his tomb there first or the mausoleum, it is still a nice place to visit.
not a big attraction for foreign tourists but shah abbas was a great king and deserves better than that
So simple for such a great man
It is placed in meddel of a mosque
not bad
