Getting there and back

Metro, the airport, taxis and the western road.

Inside the city

Metro line 1 runs from the Vakilabad side toward Hasheminejad Airport in the southeast and comes near the centre. Openings and station names change; read that day’s official sign and do not treat this page as a metro map.

Where the metro does not reach, there are taxis, ride-hailing and buses. We have not frozen a fare here.

Outside the city

The western road goes to Golestan Dam, Torghabeh and Shandiz. The Friday-evening return is slow. Kalat and Akhlamad are other roads, and each wants a day of its own.

With a lot of luggage the airport is sometimes simpler by taxi than by metro. On a major holy day, allow more time to the shrine.
