One of the ancient yet spectacular towns of Khorasan Razavi province is Khaf, which is somehow an open-air museum of centuries-old mosques with significant architecture in northeast Iran.

Those places of worship, even the ruined ones, still represent a combination of symmetry, geometric designs, and vibrant colors, creating an astonishing view that no visitor can forget easily.
