Shiraz is Iran's fifth-largest city and its cultural capital, home to approximately 1.9 million residents. It shares Iran Standard Time (IRST/IRDT) with Tehran. Shiraz is the city of poetry, wine (historically), gardens, and Persian culture. The great Persian poets Hafez and Sa'di — whose verses are recited by heart by Iranians of all generations — are buried in magnificent mausolea in Shiraz that are pilgrimage sites for Iranians today. Persepolis — the ceremonial capital of the Achaemenid Empire, built by Darius the Great around 515 BC and burned by Alexander the Great in 330 BC — is located just 60 km from Shiraz and is Iran's most visited UNESCO World Heritage Site. Pasargadae, the older Achaemenid capital containing Cyrus the Great's tomb, is also nearby. Shiraz was historically renowned for its Shirazi wine, which was exported throughout the medieval Islamic world despite religious prohibitions. The Nasir al-Mulk Mosque (Pink Mosque), with its extraordinary stained glass windows casting rainbow light across the interior, is one of Iran's most photographed sites.
