The construction of Harun Velayat or Harunieh, is composed of a cupola, a tomb-box, two courtyards and two portals beautifully ornamented with mosaic tiles delicate scrolls, and complex designs. It was erected in 1523 AD, in the reign of the Safavid king Shah Ismail I

Mausoleul Harun Velayat are două curţi interioare, cu portaluri decorate cu mozaic, o cupolă şi mormântul propriu-zis, care este atribuit mai multor figuri mistice (fie fiului celui de al zecelea sau al unsprezecelea imam, fie nepotului celui de al şaselea). Mausoleul este însă venerat mai ales de femei, care au credinţa că ar avea puterea de a vindeca sterilitatea.
