The destruction of the fabric around the shrine of Shahcheragh (PBUH) is a rumor

According to Arya Heritage report, citing the relations of the General Directorate of Cultural Heritage, Tourism and Handicrafts of Fars Province, Moseib Amiri said today, Wednesday 26th of Bahman, after the journalists visited the historical context of the cultural heritage in the Fars media: the issues that are discussed in the media and through journalists and companions The media is not correct even because of the sympathy raised and the incomplete information has caused correct conclusions not to be made.

The head of the Cultural Heritage and Tourism Research Institute stated that if we want to inform about a topic, we must first know about its background or context; He said: The decisions taken today are completely different from the decisions taken in the past 20 years, because with the passage of time, the positions are clear and more logical solutions are found to respond to the needs.

Amiri stated: somewhere it was said that the shrine of Shahcheragh (PBUH) is supposed to cover the entire historical 360 hectares of Shiraz, but this is like a big joke because that plan was approved in 1982 on a scale of 57 hectares, but now this plan means It is not that the scale of 57 hectares will be destroyed and new spaces will be built.

Amiri added: In response to some who say that this plan is being implemented to build commercial complexes, I must say that the current commercial complexes do not have the necessary prosperity and many of them are empty of businesses. The discussion is about organization and our intention is to organize this area.

He said that Fars province has all kinds of tourism capacity: Fars is the first pole of the country in terms of historical, cultural and health tourism and has a significant position in religious tourism.

Amiri stated: Without a doubt, if there is to be a connection between the two shrines of Shahcheragh (pbuh) and the shrine of Hazrat Seyyed Alauddin Hossein (pbuh), this route will be organized, the access and movement of pilgrims to these two shrines will be facilitated, and this is a good thing. This work can definitely help the religious tourism capacity of Shiraz city. Therefore, the plan to connect the two shrines does not mean widespread destruction in Shiraz.

He stated: In the past, wrong decisions have been made in Shiraz, and if many of these decisions were made correctly, we would not have been exposed to these destructions.

He said: Those events have happened and today all the devices have reached a place where we can reach a point where the current needs of the city can be solved through coordination and interaction.

Believing that the city is a living entity that has needs, Amiri said: these needs change over time, but this does not mean that the cultural heritage or the road and urban development intend to destroy valuable works and areas.

He said: Many times these plaques are reconstructed by people in historical context; Therefore, you can’t just look. Dilapidated houses need repair and reconstruction; In this historical context, we have 10,000 to 12,000 plaques that need renovation and reconstruction.

Amiri reminded: In the plans that were presented for the historical context of Shiraz in the past, they could not come up with a plan that would meet the needs of all institutions. I believe that it is necessary to consider facilities for the residents of Baft according to the dignity, number, concentration and importance of historical works; When the city is able to meet the needs of the people according to the standards, we will definitely not see destruction and unpleasant events.

Amiri said: In the past few years, more than 200 historical houses were renovated and turned into eco-tourist accommodations and coffee shops. But fortunately, with all the measures that have been taken and with the support of private sector investors and the support of the government, we see investors investing in the city of Shiraz; You should also see all the positive points.

Amiri stated: Many buildings were destroyed in the past, some buildings may have been eroded and destroyed, but over the past few years, the process of erosion and destruction of buildings in the whole country and especially in Shiraz has decreased. Of course, we all must be sensitive to reduce these unpleasant events and increase investment in the context of creating economic value for the city of Shiraz.

This official continued: Some people think that in the current plan around the shrine of Hazrat Shah Chirag (AS), commercial complexes are going to be built. The assumption that demolition is going to take place around the shrine and commercial complexes are going to be built is a rumor; Those who are aware of the background of this plan know very well that the space is not going to be destroyed.

He added: We have about 410 historical works registered in the 360-hectare texture collection, and many historical works in Shiraz cover the historical texture collection of Shiraz.

He said: Some people raise the question why the fabric of Yazd is registered but the fabric of Shiraz is not registered. It can be said that with the prohibitions that exist in the historical works of Shiraz texture, this texture was recorded indirectly before Yazd texture; Therefore, despite the privacy regulations, construction will definitely not take place in this area.

Amiri pointed to the report of the Cultural Heritage Research Institute and said: In this report, it was investigated what changes and transformations have been made in the historical context of Shiraz and which buildings have been affected by the implementation of the compiled plans from 1974 to today. The plan that was presented in the past, similar to the plan of the Holy Mosque, is not going to be implemented in Shiraz.

He reminded: the research institute has not drawn any new lines in this report; The research institute has found every plan and idea with the cooperation of the devices on the map and has explained the issue of what the implementation of these plans entails.

Referring to a part of this report, Amiri said: In a part of this report, it is stated that the consultant who prepared and prepared this plan for the historical context of the city of Shiraz did not put any registered and valuable building on the verge of destruction; This option can be a desirable option for cultural heritage.

He stated: Until today, our basis is the implementation of this plan, and cultural heritage has always served in context; Creating suspicion is not in anyone’s interest. It is not true that it is said that 10 thousand graves will be sold in the historical context; This transition wants to be stabilized; Some say that Hashtbehesht project is going to be implemented in this direction. We believe that the implementation of this plan will not cause any problems, taking into account some factors.

The head of the Cultural Heritage and Tourism Research Institute stated: Currently, the consultant says that by using the existing capacities of the historical crossings of Shiraz and improving and restoring these crossings and increasing the traffic on this route, it is possible to create a connection between the two shrines, and the residents of the area can also benefit from this plan.
