Chahar Padshahan, Historic mosque in Lahijan County, Iran.
The Chahar Padshahan Mosque features a rectangular layout with four rooms, a north-facing porch, and two main entrances constructed from polished wood.
Built as a mausoleum for Seyyed Karkiya in 1250, the structure transformed into a mosque and received substantial expansions during the Safavid period.
The central room contains wooden zarih enclosing the graves of four Karkiya dynasty rulers, while the adjacent space functions as a prayer hall.
The mosque stands at Vahdat Square in Lahijan, maintaining its role as both a religious site and a historical monument recognized by Iranian heritage authorities.
The interior walls display Qajar period tiles, while the original carved wooden doors now reside in Tehran's National Museum for preservation.
