Minar-e-Sarban
Minar-e-Sarban, literally meaning the minaret of the Camel Driver, stands a few hundred meters away from the minaret of Chihil Dukhtaran, in the Jubareh quarter (mohllah) of Isfahan. Both minarets are excellent examples of twelfth century, free-standing, Central Iranian Seljuq brick minarets. The Manar Sarban was built 48 meters high between 1130-55 and thus measures more than twice as tall than the minaret of Chihil Dukhtaran. Architectural historians consider it to be possibly part of a mosque complex that does not exist now. The local tradition about the love affair between Princess Zubaida and a camel driver (Sarban) who is reported to have been thrown from the top of the Minar is not generally accepted by historians.
The debate between me and my Iranian daughter, Sharareh about the height of Minaret was ultimately won by her and I lost the bet where after I served Ice-cream (Bastani) to her and her cousins.
The minaret today displays an obvious tilt to the west and damage to its delicate cornices, raising concern for its state of preservation. UNESCO my like to take notice of this great historical monument.
