Vakil Bath

The Vakil Bath is a historic public bathhouse in Shiraz, Iran, built under Karim Khan during the Zand period. It forms part of the architectural ensemble with which he adorned his capital. Accounts of the Zand Empire list it with the Vakil Bazaar, Vakil Mosque and the Arg of Karim Khan as among the finest examples of eighteenth-century Persian architecture.
