Aminiha Hosseiniyeh

Aminiha Hosseiniyeh (a congregation hall for Twelver Shia Muslim commemoration ceremonies, especially those associated with the Mourning of Muharram) is one of the most attractive and most beautiful places in Qazvin, where mourning takes place. This complex is composed of various parts such as halls, basement, soda shop, etc. The main section of the complex is the great hall, on the walls of which Āina-kāri decoration (a kind of interior decoration made by Iranian artists for the first time by putting small pieces of the mirror together in geometric forms or in forms of flowers and shrubs) has been applied, giving it a magnificent beauty. Aminiha Hosseiniyeh was built in 1858 during the Qajar period.
