Shisha Gumbad (literal English translation: glass dome) is a tomb of the Lodhi Dynasty and is believed to have possibly been constructed in the late 15th century. There are four tombs in the Lodhi Gardens including the Shisha Gumbad. Initially, all the tombs were built independently and were not connected. In early 20th century, a park was developed which was inaugurated by Lady Willingdon bringing the four monuments into one garden.

Saeid Saadat
Hafezie Garden; is one of the outstanding gardens of Shiraz. In my eyes, this garden is sending considerable messages, which are note worthy. This place is holding different aspects of Iranian dignity;such as historical,political,traditional and cultural aspects. First of all, this garden was promoted during the Pahlavi dynasty and the amazing monument was constructed in that era as well. Secondly, the memorial structure is symbol of Hafez and his manner of living, which was designed by French Architect André Godard. Moreover, the Garden also is following the discipline of Persian Gardens,which dating back to more than 2500 years ago, with its logical axis and mathematical distribution of elements on context. Apart from all of these factor I should bring up these days condition of the place, this interesting place with its pavilion and open corridor is one of the rarest places in Shiraz which calls people, from every level of society without considering the gender, position or age to come and chill in great atmosphere. The Garden and the Tomb is welcoming people for reading Hafez poetry, singing different poems of different poets, celebrating new year or celebrating the religious events. So, liberality and democratic condition of this garden in this small scale can be felt if you have experienced life condition of non-democratic society like Iran.
