Qom

Qom is a seminary city, and the gold dome of the Fatemeh Masumeh Shrine sits at its centre. Pilgrims arrive by the busload from Tehran, and many visitors come on a day trip.

Our articles cover the shrine, Jamkaran Mosque on the edge of the city, and what to take home, which usually means a tin of sohan, the local saffron and pistachio brittle. The Qom travel guide covers the city and its food.
