[edit] Summary
This charming octagonal mausoleum, set in a small walled water-garden, is on the Mashhad road, 26 km from Nishapur in the village of Ghadamgah, the "Place of the Foot", so named because inside the mausoleum there is a stone slab with what are believed to be the (very large) two footprints of Imam Reza, who stopped here on his way to Tus. This 17th-century monument, which can hardly accommodate more than half a dozen pilgrims at a time, has also some fine inscriptions and stalactite moldings.(moqarnas). It is no problem for non-Muslims to visit or to photograph inside. The mausoleum possesses four spacious ivans on four sides and its interior has been covered with fine octagonal enameled tiles. An inscription in Thulth found in the monument, gives the name of the calligrapher as Mohammad Hossein.
