Shaking minarets (Monarjonban)

The shaking minarets of Isfahan are located six kilometers away from the city. The date of their construction goes back to seven centuries ago. They are Mongolian in style. This building was constructed over the tomb of Amu Abdollah Karladani. One of the Islamic scientists of that time the reason for the importance of this building is mostly due to the resistance of the building against the vibrations. Therefore when one of the minarets is shaken the other minaret will be shaken too simultaneously. The minarets are seventeen meters high and the distance between them is ten meters.
